Worth the money - great crew!
We were a family of 4 (16- 50 years old) and the instruction time and content were perfect before diving.
They took as out to a nice reef area and we were able to find the following items underwater & BRING back with us: a USA $10 bill (son), a super cool seashell - conical - seriously cool (wife), an empty turtle shell (daughter) and I found a Live Lobster. (OK - THAT they did NOT let me bring back - but I got great pictures of it!!)
When we got back the USA we signed up for SCUBA diving lessons in our town!
We will definitely be doing a LOT more of it!!
Guides were great, time was adequate, and the experience was awesome!
BTW - we had the same crew when we came out a few days before to go parasailing and they were great on that as well!

Excellent service for beginners
Had a wonderful experience with Liam this morning trying out scuba driving for the first time in Ocho Rios, Jamaica. Liam took his time guiding me through the process and ensuring my comfort and confidence throughout the journey. I was able to experience a whole new world beneath the water. Will definitely rebook with PADI when I return.

Amazing PADI instructor
Bancroft was a patient and understanding PADI instructor. My husband and I got open water certified and Bancroft was super flexible with the open water dive times. He even scheduled a private dive for us to help me get acquainted with the open water since I had never done that before. Highly recommend scuba with Bancroft and for everyone to check out the beautiful aquatic life in Jamaica!
