We got OW certified with Dive Instructor Simon. If you want a fly-by-night operation where you get the thrill of wondering if you’re doing this scuba thing correctly, or if you’ll float away to Venezuela, this is not for you.
If you’re thinking about diving you’ll get the best training and underwater views with ScubaCaribe in Aruba.
Simon is VERY knowledgeable and he really does enjoy sharing that knowledge. If you have Simon for an instructor he makes sure every student gets attention and guidance through every step. As a student you will learn and develop skills at a good pace, and when you pass the class you do so because you earned it and demonstrated skills. I never got the impression any student gets pushed through and passes just because they sign up. And that’s good, you don’t want to be pushed through something like this. If you’re really struggling with something the instructors will work with you one on one outside of normal class.
We did 4 open water dives for class, and then signed up for another 2 dives. For the open water dives, DiveMaster Miguel joined the group. It was very reassuring to have an extra set of eyes monitoring the group in case anyone had any issues. Both Simon and Miguel were happy to answer all our questions (like where’s the best spot to get lunch, or where did the KITO KITO go?)
Highly recommend! - via
