I’ve never dove before nor have my three teenagers. My wife last dove 20 plus years ago at Molokini! The patience that Chris and Anika showed with the five of us cannot be overstated! Safety, safety, safety was the name of the game! Great company, was highly recommended to me. They certainly came through! You made my three kids trip an incredibly special one! My boys haven’t stopped talking about the turtles and the sharks they saw on the second dive! Dave

We were both new to scuba diving, and we felt that Michael’s instruction was super clear and motivating! We would definitely try scuba diving again with Banyan Tree next time we’re in town!

I am a certified SCUBA diver, but had not dived in 25+ years, so listed myself as a non-diver. My wife had only snorkeled, so we signed up for the intro dive. Chris was our instructor, and was great. One person in our group was pretty hesitant when he got in the water, but Chris did a great job of reassuring him, and getting him diving. My wife was also a bit apprehensive, but did great. I guess my main advise is, if you at all curious, give it a try and don't be worried! Yes, you do need to know how to swim, but not being a super strong swimmer should not deter you (my wife is an Ironman, but I don't think I could swim 100 yards without a break!). I think the most important thing is to spend some time in the ocean first, so you are comfortable in the ocean. Going snorkeling first is also helpful, IMHO, as it acclimates you to the unnatural act of breathing with you face under water. So, don't hesitate to give it a go, at worst if you don't get down (and you will get down!), it will be the best snorkeling you've ever done!
