They don't try to sell you things you don't need, the value you get for what you pay here is above expectations. It's a great business, run by friendly people who care. They have passion for what they do. They care about their clients. They put their whole heart into their business. It's a small locally owned business. The kind of business you want to support. Absolutely love this place. They deserve 10 stars. Yelp only allows me to give five they rock.!!!

When I got there mentioned I was interested in a "triathalon" capable wetsuit but wasn't having any luck finding one within my budget. Although they're primarily a dive shop (and they do have an amazing array of equipment/accessories) they took the time to go through their inventory and allowed me to try on a suit which ended up being exactly what I was looking for. Both items I purchased were of excellent quality and the owner/staff are knowledgeable, professional and considerate... Thanks!

Whoever I spoke to guided me about what the best way to handle everything would be. He spent a lot of time answering all of my questions in a very non-judgy way. Honestly, I wish that I dived as I would definitely give this place my business. I do not live locally there, or I would send my husband. Thanks to the expertise of the person who answered the phone at the shop, I can now encourage my husband to come clean about it and let the dive master know(as well as his dive buddy).

I called Sheri a bit over a month ago, trying to find an instructor to certify me before my scuba…read morediving trip. Everyone in Santa Barbara and vicinity was booked for a solid month and I needed to get certified within two weeks. Sheri patiently listened to my story and next day (after putting out some desperately-seeking-instructor messages), connected me with a fantastic instructor (Michael Francisco). Located on Catalina Island. LOL! I had not intended to make this extra three-day trip so close to my 2 week vacation, but hey... you do what you gotta do. And it was a truly educational and beautiful experience, which accomplished my goal and that I would not have known was an option had it not been for Sheri.  She also made a great recommendation for a scuba diving vacation location, which my instructor echoed. I went with their idea and was gifted an incredible diving trip. Sheri and my instructor continue to give me pointers about all kinds of things scuba-related and I am very grateful to have literally, stumbled upon such great resources. Thank you for all of your amazingness, Sheri and Michael!

When I say I got hooked immediately, I mean it. I made some cool new friends and had truly the world's best diving instructor - Richie who has now been dubbed our scuba dad.

The staff at eco has been incredible in educating us and involving us in the community! I recently took advantage of the crazy good Black Friday event and bought most of my gear! Getting excited to head to Fiji with Eco in August, and to get my rescue cert done by the end of summer!

Ken was more than accommodating of the changes, and continued to roll with the punches the whole weekend. The group was around 15 experienced divers, all friendly and humble. Captain and crew were equally fun and skilled. We re-routed the trip based on weather, and ended up with average conditions, which in all respects were the best we could hope for at that point. Accommodations were clean, dry, and comfortable and sleeping wasn't an issue. Nitrox fills were $6 (air would have been free), and tanks were topped off promptly after each dive. A tip: skip the wetsuit in favor of a looser-fitting drysuit. Many wetsuits didn't fit by the end of the weekend thanks to the wonderful, plentiful food!
