Great instructors with a real dive shop and high safety standards…read more I've received compliments on my buoyancy from other instructors who couldn't believe how new I was, thanks to my excellent instructors at Anchors Away who went above and beyond to teach me how to be a great diver. They have a full selection of items on hand to choose from for purchase along with rental gear. Their prices were great and they have regular activities and trips to keep you engaged. Don't get scammed by people telling you how "cheap" they will certify you for, you won't get the training you should have. Definitely recommend Anchors Away!!!

Excellent, experienced, patient, and professional instructors. Before coming here, I never wore…read morefins, a wetsuit, or breathed underwater before. I took their Beginner Open Water Class and left feeling well trained and confident that I can safely dive. Anchors Away is also awesome because they encourage customers to return for fun diving events like underwater pumpkin carving and boat diving trips. It's not just a school or a dive shop, but a place to learn and network with fellow divers and make new friends. Also, the staff are actively engaged with community service and volunteering, not to mention it is a veteran run business. I highly recommend Anchors Away Scuba.

If you were turned away at Ponce de Leon Springs because it was too full, or you have a craving to…read morescuba some spring fed caves, or you want a less crowded place to swim in cool 70°F spring water, or a place to climb a tree and jump from a rope swing- this is the place for you! Free entry. Bathrooms. Small parking lot. Outdoor shower and scuba rinse station. A couple picnic tables. Nice big boardwalk around waters with signage that describes trees nearby. Deep waters with cement docks that have ladders. Some people have placed ladders on trees and hung ropes from the trees for swinging into the deeper waters if you dare. Good place for good swimmers... not much shallow area and clarity may vary based on recent storms or flooding. If you don't have good swimmers bring a life jacket or floaties to make the most of the deeper waters.

Love diving here. The ONLY reason that I give it 4 stars as opposed to 5 is that we've had issues…read morewith the people there. It gets super packed, and there are people who get drunk and stupid. We go diving (we're locals) there weekly and we've had issues with people taking our food while we're under water (bags of chips). But if it's not during peak-season, and you're looking for a place to dive... this is fantastic. Much more clear than Vortex (too much algae in the water there... one person bounces off the bottom and vis goes to shit). Much more forgiving at Morrison. The "wash" station is really nice to rinse gear off afterwards. Can pull the car up to the gazebo and drop gear then park. short walk into the water. Great viz the overwhelming majority of the time. My normal dive go-to.

I informed the boat my son and I haven't dove in 10+ years, and there was one other diver on the boat. They seemed not to be the least bit concerned. I was comfortable, or I wouldn't have booked the dive. My suggestion...if you're new to the sport, this may not be your dive shop to book through. If you're an experienced diver, don't waste your money. The dives are boring, because you're so confined to any one item. First dive, we could look at an old metal structure that was a bridge. Wow...whoop-to-do. The second dive was better, but I guess I'm spoiled by the coral reefs in the Mexico region.

I just had my first interaction with this shop and did a dry-suit and JJ-Closed Circuit Rebreather course through them. Chris Ball (Owner) is hands down the best scuba instructor I've come across in 26 years of diving. His shop has everything from intro scuba / snorkel gear to advanced technical diving supplies including Oxygen & TRIMIX fills. He's passionate about the fun of diving while maintaining a "one-stop" dive shop, and has managed to figure out how to instruct on any level with both empathy and professionalism. Whether you have an 8 year-old who you think would enjoy getting underwater or are a seasoned dive professional, I can't recommend this shop strongly enough!

Unfortunately, I had a disappointing experience with Cave Adventurers…read more During my second day of training, I broke a finger and asked the instructor, Edd, whether I could complete the remaining portion of the course once my finger healed. Since I had already paid the full $900 upfront, he agreed. About two months later, I contacted him to schedule the remaining training days, but I started receiving multiple excuses and delays. I even offered to pay an additional $150 to accommodate the situation, but in the end, I was told I would need to pay another instructor $600 extra to complete the final two days because Edd no longer wanted to honor his original agreement. I understand unexpected situations can happen, but I was disappointed by the lack of follow-through and professionalism after paying in full and relying on the promise that was made.
