This is my second time using this company and I plan to continue with them. We rented a JetSki on the most recent trip. The rental process was well-laid out and the pick-up process was straightforward. Thorough directions were given regarding safe operation and all questions were answered. Drop-off was smooth as well. I have been very impressed with their professionalism overall. Thanks Kim and Joe...we had a great experience! Michael

Twelve years ago, I walked into Ocean Safari already certified but honestly not a diver yet. I'd…read morehad a bad certification experience at another shop a couple of years earlier, and it completely destroyed my confidence. My gear sat untouched for two years because I was scared to dive again. Eventually I worked up the courage to walk in and ask to join a local dive trip, I had my card, so I figured I should be able to do it. Somehow Gabe, Soo, and the team recognized exactly where I was and never once made me feel embarrassed about it. They patiently filled in the gaps in my training, helped me work through the things that scared me, and gave me the confidence I'd been missing all along. Looking back, it feels like they quietly re-certified me without ever making me feel like I had to start over. That changed everything. Diving went from something I was afraid of to one of the great passions of my life. With Gabe's mentorship and encouragement, I eventually moved overseas and spent a few years working as a scuba instructor, something I never would have imagined when I first walked into that shop. Over the years, Ocean Safari has become so much more than a dive shop. It's a community and a second home. My parents learned to dive here. Years later, I brought my boyfriend in to get certified, and he's now my husband. We still dive with Gabe, Soo, and the Ocean Safari family regularly. They gave me the confidence I needed to actually become a diver, introduced me to lifelong friends, and gave me a community that still feels like home. Thank you, Gabe, Soo, and everyone at Ocean Safari. You've had a bigger impact on my life than you'll probably ever know.

It's where something really special started…read more From the very first phone call -- which turned into a 30+ minute conversation just vibing and asking questions...we knew this was our place. Craig, the owner, made everything feel easy and personal from the start. Signing up for classes, scheduling, getting certified... all seamless. No pressure, no ego, just genuine passion for diving and people. Craig even moved class dates around to accommodate our schedules. Who does that? That level of care meant everything to us. The entire team was incredible. Supportive, patient, knowledgeable, and just good humans. We didn't just learn how to dive...we built confidence, memories, and friendships that will last a lifetime. We'll absolutely be continuing our certifications here and buying our gear here. No question. We thought we were signing up for scuba classes. What we found was a dive family.

Whether you choose PADI or NAUI, the team at Sharky's make it as painless as possible. Great selection of gear and great pricing whether you are an entry-level diver or the most technical gear-head.

What a valuable resource to have this far inland!

I really wanted to be a lifetime customer at this shop since it has been around for so long and I…read morelive less than 3 miles away. I took the boat in to have everything replaced in the lower drive, bellows, gimbal bearing, hoses, gaskets, gear oil change, shift cable, trim senders and more. I wanted everything replaced as a preventative measure, after looking at the old parts, everything still looked new and didn't even need to be changed- my fault for trying to be too cautious and i could have waited a couple years. All the other shops from OC to LA were booked up for months, so i went ahead with Boats Plus, even though the quote was nearly twice as much as everyone else- $1200 vs $2200 at Boats Plus. Bad mistake. Boat was operating very good before they touched it. Now i have to deal with: - Binding shift cable - hard starting - rough idling - gear oil leak coming from inside - forgot to reconnect the speedo tube - forgot to tighten some screws - spray paint overspray on the side of the hull - dirty greasy footprints all over the deck - greasy fingerprints everywhere - swim step bracket base broken - and more i cant think of right now And i cant be 100% sure the stuff on the inside is good, seeing how horrible the stuff on the outside looks. Did they even perform the work? Do i trust the bellows not to slip off? Called them, took it back, only for excuses and not accepting what they did wrong, tried to blame me. Tired of dealing with this old man jerk off, if they touch my boat again they will prob mess something else up. Save yourself major headaches, time, and money. Take your beloved vessel to a real marine shop.
