We were looking to get certified with PADI before an upcoming trip. Read reviews of the local companies with classes. I came into the shop and met with Jen, who gave me the “low down” on prices for Open Water Certification, classes available, and private ones if needed. Due to our short time frame before our trip, we opted for private lessons. Jen worked behind our back to get us an instructor within a week, and helped set us up for the whole pool/open water session. We can’t thank her enough for her help getting this going so quickly. Our instructor, Garth, just completed his 1,000th dive, and was more than willing to jump in on short notice to certify us. Besides being incredibly patient and kind, Garth reallllllllllly worked with us when we were anxious, took a long time on skills, and ensured our safety the whole time. In fact, that was Garth’s motto the whole time: safety.
We couldn’t recommend Thunder Reef Divers more, or Garth. They have been a joy to “work” with and can’t wait to come back for supplies (oh yeah, discounts if you do your classes with them)! - via
