5Awesome shop, divemaster and dive!
Met with divemaster Laura and other divers at the shop. Staff insured I had everything I needed gear wise. Other divers as well. Great conversation driving to devils den. Had a small leak with a tank O-ring- easy swap. Great pre dive prep and dive plan safety talk. Great dive! Great people and more conversation on the way back. Felt more like I was diving with family than a stranger. I’ll definitely do it again. Maybe a combo blue grotto AND devils den since thyleyre so close together. Clinton M
5Scuba dive certified
Cody was really good with our 10 year old daughter getting certified!
5Very personal and very professional focused on our learning experience
We did the discover scuba diving class and could not have had a better experience. It's was very personal and very professional focused on our learning experience. The instructor took time to personally work with us individually because everyone had a different experience level with snorkeling. So advancing to scuba was unique for each of us. I highly recommend this company.
5Manatees and Three Sisters
Steve and Corey were great! Swam with a Manatee and in the Three Sisters area. Affordable and worth the time.
5Rainbow River Dive
A very nice freshwater dive. Rainbow river is very clear with a gentle current. Had a Cormorant swimming around us at times, saw gars, turtles, and multiple other fish. Staff was friendly, helpful, and helped the trip come off without a hitch. Lasted about an hour.
5Manatee excursion
We had an awesome experience with the best tour guide and captain, Laura and Austin! We would absolutely recommend this to everyone looking for an adventure of a lifetime 😊

About Crystal River
Crystal River is a small town on Florida's Nature Coast, famous for clear spring-fed waters where manatees gather in winter.
Crystal River lies on Florida's Gulf coast north of Tampa, where many springs feed Kings Bay with clear water that stays at a steady 22 degrees Celsius all year. As winter cold chills the Gulf, West Indian manatees crowd into the warm water, and Crystal River National Wildlife Refuge protects them. Three Sisters Springs, a cluster of crystal-clear pools, is a manatee refuge in the cold months.
