Such a simple act of kindness shown to people vacationing floored me. The kids felt like they won the lottery! Thank you Jim's Dive Shop!

I found the gun department staffed with EXPERIENCED and attentive employees who participate in shooting activities like I enjoy and were able to offer a discount that made a good deal even better. I feel that if you exhibit the safety habits that make everyone on both sides of the counter feel comfortable and show employees that you would not be a danger to yourself or others you will find employees who are happy to serve and even train you depending on your experience level. Don't expect the same happy response from that employee if you show disrespect for gun safety or have nefarious ownership reasons because those employees protect my rights to legal ownership and the stores best interests which I rely on and keeps me coming back when ever the need dictates.

The following weekend (Saturday)we traveled as a group to Rainbow river to acquaint us with an open water dive. The next day (Sunday) We then traveled just down the road to Blue Grotto Dive resort and were able to freely dive in a beautiful aqua-fur that's a constant 70° and crystal clear!!

Far Horizons is an excellent dive charter. I suspect they are equally good when hired out for a…read morefishing charter. I moved to St Pete from Detroit, MI back in 2009. Generally, I go to the keys to dive, but have occasionally gone diving locally in the Gulf of Mexico. This past weekend was my first time diving with Far Horizons and I was very pleased! Coordination of the dive was simple and seamless with Margaret. Met at the boat at 7:30AM on a Saturday and departure at 8AM. Margaret and her husband, Captian Mike, were very friendly and knowledgeable. Captain Mike took us out about 18 miles to Fathom 10 / Tramp Steamer wreck in about 60 ft of water. Amazing visibility, could see the wreck at the bottom as soon as we got in the water. Tons of large sized grouper. Sea was a little choppier than weather reports made it sound, but Captain Mike took great care of us and we were certainly pleased. The dive was so good, we did not want to change locations, we did the same dive again with the 2nd tank. The boat is updated and well maintained. Best for groups of divers around 6 or 7. I brought my mother for mother's day and two friends who were visiting from out of town, we met another solo diver who joined our group and we more or less all stayed together in a big group underwater. There was also a diver master giving his student a open water checkout dive. It was a good group size for ease of maneuvering around the boat, storing all the gear and tanks, getting in and out of the water. The inside area of the boat is spacious. Margaret made sure the boat was stocked with plenty of water, fresh fruit, and some PB&J sandwiches, which proved to be clutch for the ride back. We arrived back at the dock about 1:30PM where Margaret was waiting for us. She took a group shot, they helped us unload, and we went home. Then I spend about 5 hours telling my wife all the morning diving stories. I think she needs about a 6 month break from hearing me talk about diving. I certainly don't intend to wait that long before my next dive, but I guess I will try to give her just the cliff notes next time. I think my stories exhausted her more than the dive exhausted me. Perhaps it was all the adrenaline I still had flowing thanks to the fantastic charter services of Far Horizons.

First Time Experience…read more Capt Mike and First Mate Randy were great! Red Tide had become an issue so Capt Mike went the extra mile (25 of them to be exact) to get us where the fish would be. He knew right where to find them. No wasted time searching. Very knowledgeable and Very Experienced! They kept the lines baited and the fish coming. No time wasted. This was our first trip out and my son and I will never forget it. The fish were amazing with a couple of suggested recipe's from Randy. Cooked for 20 adults and everyone loved it. We will be back and booking another offshore fishing experience with Far Horizons. Great people! A BIG THANK YOU TO MARGARET AS WELL! She took care of all the booking. Quick response time to all questions leading up to the day of the trip.

Chris and Bob were great assistant instructors, always watching and helping, which made a big difference for new divers. Our final dives at Lake Denton were well organized and a lot of fun. Overall, an excellent experience and I'd highly recommend Letts Dive to anyone looking to get certified.
