Great Holiday trip out to the USCGC Mohawk In town for the…read moreweek of Thanksgiving, I tried several local shops to see who had tips planned. Most said "no-trips" they were taking the holiday off ( Seems odd for a service driven business) Not H2O, Ant texted me back saying he had trips going out to the Mohawk Wednesday or Friday. 5 experienced divers (2 swimming the wreck and 3 spearfishing) all fit perfectly on this very comfortable 33 foot boat with plenty of seating and coolers. At pickup, Capt Ant had on-board larger steel NITROX (or Air) tanks and soft weights for everyone. He arrange for gear rentals the day before and even took the gear back for us after the holiday. Great Trip, Great Service. Fun guys. Best day diving in Florida I have ever had. P.S. On the wreck: 4 Goliath Grouper, 100+ Amber Jacks, Tuna and millions of little baitfish. If you have not been down to the Mohoawk in 2+ year it is completely different dive now.

Bill was awesome diving with our 13 year old son who was on his first open Water post certificate. They were both super great with our whole family on both our artificial reef dive and our barge dives. Bill is a skilled spear fisherman and was willing to teach us and let us try-- we held off for next trip. He also stayed out late to try and get us more fish which is huge in our book. We would five and fish with him again Thank you for such a unique experience for a family who loves to both fish and dive.

Very fond of Pete's Diving Center in Fort Myers, at the West End of Colonial Blvd…read more I began looking in for some minor equipment needs ( I have been an instructor myself since 1987 ) but I enjoy the shopping experience. Pete is a very accomplished and delightful manager of the operation and dive instructor. PROS: 1. Strong emphasis on safety for his divers, absolutely the highest order of instruction for Scuba. 2. Shows sincere interest in being helpful to new students who need an expert's guidance. 3. Offers continuing education for divers who wish to become more proficient, such as Rescue Diver, Divemaster, and many specialty classes - a big plus. 4. Selection of equipment for divers covers everything from a new mask to various sizes of Scuba tanks. 5. Air for filling tanks. The tanks are filled by Pete or a professional, especially critical for divers using "mixed gas" such as blends of nitrox. 6. Pete offers trips for divers especially to Florida's East coast where visibility in the open water greatly exceeds Gulf of Mexico visibility. Offers trips to the Caribbean, a big plus. VALUE: I'm happy to recommend Pete's as a perfect value as a starting off place to introduce Scuba to new divers as well as experienced divers looking for their next five trip, class or equipment. It's the only Dive Center I recommend.

So stopped by here with their convenient and extensive choices for timing and duration of excursions .. if you just want to be out on the water to feel the breeze and not do much... totally worth the fees to have a boat for a day and have a meal and just chill swim and fish. Oh yeah... another thing I loved being able to go around saying "go get your ticket to BELOW ME (boat name)!" That humor is totally the vibe of the instructor and owner Joe and his hilarious wife Stephanie. They are so cute as they banter and give each other total grief and giggles... such entertainment!!! Love them! #CouplesGoals P.S. Checkout the Mexican place next door. Super convenient place for closing out the day.
