This was my best dive ever.... I can't say enough about Sea Spirit Diving!!! Awesome

Wow Just Wow Attila my Instructor Dive Guide was 10/10 awesome... Everything about this experience was awesome.... start to finish... They had an excellent boat captain and every step of the way was as expected boat briefing and dive briefing was thorough and complete. They did an excellent job of grouping divers and had plenty of crew for an awesome diver to crew ratio (one of the best I have seen yet) I was with two other DMs (I am a PADI certified DM) and the Instructor as our Guide. He took us on a more skilled dive to a sunken ship that had large marble columns that were on their way to Turkey from ancient Roman times and it was AMAZING to see. His dive briefing was thorough and prepared us very well, there was no current or surge and tons of volcanic and rocky swim throughs. Interesting sea life he pointed out all along the way. The swim throughs were definitely a maze that our skilled dive guide knew like the back of his hand. Wow just wow.... He got us to drop in first before the other groups so we could get a head start. There is the possibility of silt and reduced vis if you don't control your buoyancy. The water temps were warmer than expected but no complaints it was so nice to hit a warm upwelling. Just before the end of the second dive was a large Octopus chilling in the rock face of the wall. Our surface interval was met with fresh fruit and ice tea.....water too of course. All the crew were super helpful but Attila really made my dive this trip the best dive I had all week. A true professional. 10/10 Definitely recommend this dive shop. It took maybe 10 minutes to get to the dive sites and we had the whole area to ourselves and it was impressive no matter where you looked Thank you for one of my most memorable dives ever!!! If I am back in Sicily I am diving with this shop again!!! My only regret is I was so excited by everything I didn't ask for a tee shirt or tank and if they had any for sale. I went directly to the boat Sea Spirit and totally forgot to ask but would LOVE to have picked one up....

Great 1st dive in Italy

I had a great time on my 2 tank dive with Sea Spirit! Thurston was my Dive Master and guide and he was so patient and knowledgeable. The whole crew were so nice. They made sure we were safe and had a good time. I brought my own gear and they even rinsed it for me back at the dive shop and I picked it up a few hours later. I would highly recommend this dive team.

A few recreational dives and the PADI rescue course

One of the most professional dive centers I’ve ever been with! A family-friendly business with extremely knowledgeable and experienced instructors, dive masters, and captains. They always provide thorough safety briefings for both the boat and the dive/snorkel. The boats are clean, equipped with bathrooms, and even have post-dive snacks. Rental gear very well maintained. Highly recommended for divers of all levels!

Recommended dive center!!!

We had a great diving day (2 dives) with our captain Carmelo and our guides Swann & Viviana. Super nice, friendly, likeable and humorous people. We really enjoyed the day/dives in Taormina near and at Isola Bella. The dive center is definitely recommended and we definitely plan to book Sea Spirit again at the next Sicily holiday 😍.

Great instructors and fantastic dives!

I did 10 dives in early Sept with Sea Spirit instructors Filipi, Carmelo and Swann. Fantastic experience all round. Clear communication with Cilla from the office for planning my dives. Good equipment sanitized every day, clear routines and instructions on the boat and during dive briefings; yummy Sicilian snacks and epic soundtrack during the navigations. Felt safe prior to and during my dives with this crew. The guys from Sea Spirit are very experienced divers, very professional and supportive. They have the best knowledge about local dives sites, adapting to weather conditions fast and know where to find the best wildlife underwater. Any issues that arise they manage it gracefully and with great humour consistently. Thank you Sea Spirit for an amazing Sicilian experience!
