Heather and Trevor went above and beyond to make me feel comfortable in the water again after a 10+ Year hiatus. I brought the dive trip as a gift and it was definitely worth it! We saw an eagle ray, a sting ray, and Trevor pointed out a lot of small creatures I would have otherwise missed. We personally didn’t have any problems getting to and from the Island (as we stayed in PR), however, I realize this isn’t always the case. I would recommend staying on the island at least one night though as there is a lot to do there. Heather is also creating a wonderful App to make the trip that much better! (Honestly thats a fantastic and unexpected touch) 10/10 can’t wait to come back again!!
The best value, best dive operator on Culebra! Heather and Trevor take the time to explain everything. Their attention to detail and love of the business create an atmosphere unmatched by other operators on the main island or Culebra. See for yourself. Book an excursion with them and see how Trevor finds the most interesting creatures below the waves.
In the dive industry, you tend to come across two types of Dive Shop / Boat operators: those who make you feel like they’re doing you a favor taking you on a dive, and those who truly make you feel welcome and provide a world-class experience. Trevor and Heather at Culebra Divers are very much the latter.I came to Culebra for a long-overdue dive trip. I’ve spent a week here diving with Culebra Divers as well as doing several continuing education classes (Rescue Diver, DAN’s DEMP courses).From my first interaction with Heather when booking the trip several months ago, to the endless string of emails I sent them preparing for the trip, to every dive and every class while here... Trevor and Heather have been consummate professionals and have truly made this trip one that I’ll remember for a lifetime.Every dive has left me excited and every course has left me more confident as a diver.Beyond the professionalism at the shop, I’ve been truly impressed with the level of safety and attention to detail that Trevor and Heather put into everything they do. Their focus on guest and diver safety is at the forefront of everything they do.They’re also taking great care to make your dive experience safe in the age of COVID, with extra precautions from the time you enter the shop to the time you splash in the water... and they do so without affecting the quality of the experience.I can’t say enough about how great it has been to dive and train with Culebra Divers!(The pictures in this review were taken by Trevor from Culebra Divers on our dives this week)
The most professional dive company I have experienced. Everyone was very organized and responsive in organizing the dive. All of the dive masters were calm, professional, and attentive in the water. They had a vast knowledge and passion for marine life both big and small and gave me an appreciation for so many creatures I had overlooked many times before.
I was able to dive with Culebra Divers on four different days, and one night. The whole team is friendly and professional. Trevor and John took care of us on the boat, and by the end of my visit I feel like I made two new friends. They have eagle eyes and know their dive sites well, so tip them generously - they deserve it!
Thank you to Trevor and Heather for a beautiful dive! Amazing customer service, very welcoming vibe, thorough safety briefing, impressive attention to detail, strict COVID measures in place, and a complimentary water bottle and dive photos! Youre in good hands with these two! Highest recommendation!
Thank you so much for renting us some gear despite being closed! Made our short trip worth it!
I had a fantastic morning diving with Trevor. Trevor and Heather are extremely professional, the gear is in great condition, they walk you through every step, very knowledgeable about the diving spots/underwater world, and plus Trevor sent photos of our dive! Wonderful experience.
Very reliable, professional, and friendly. Highly recommend for anyone visiting Culebra!
Trevor Cooke is a kind divemaster, always looking out for his group. From offering snacks and water on the boat, to pointing out sealife on a dive, to prepping all the gear so all you have to do is jump in, he puts his divers first every step of the way. I was incredibly impressed with the newness, quality, and maintenance of the gear. I picked this dive shop for the qualifications of its staff and reputation (you dont want a bad regulator or seal 80 feet under) and my expectations were exceeded.The shop itself has the sundries and souvenirs youd expect. Prices are a little higher than other shops but they go out of their way to use reef-safe soap, shampoo, defogger, etc and I really like that.
We rented snorkeling equipment. We got recommendations on were to go. And they were very attentive.
The gift shop is a pretty small place. But the lady upfront is what made it not a great comfortable place. If she hears you talking in spanish she does not pay attention to.you needs. Also was more friendly to entire English speakers. Out of my 10 day stay in puerto rico. This was the worst customer service I had. I just think we have to realize to be nice to everyone everyone same way noticias are to EVERYONE in this beautiful place! Say no to racism!!!
Great service and staff. Thanks so much! PS check out Melones Beach if you get snorkeling gear.
Heather and Trevor are wonderful! Great diving with our mixed crew of Padi certified and Discover scuba divers. Nice new equipment and tons of patience and knowledge about area.😎 10/10!
Great boat and gear, professional & experienced dive masters. Great dive sites and they uploaded beautiful underwater photography from our dive. Trevor and John were knowledgeable on species from big to teeny. We dove with dolphins followed by a green turtle, reef and nurse sharks and rays. Culebra Divers location is super convenient (look just around the corner for Culebra Coffee before a morning dive), the back deck is sweet, and the shop is well-curated. Their operation is tight.
I had an amazing experience with Culebra Divers. Trevor has such an adventurous and relaxing energy as a dive master. He is very professional and experienced. I had a blast following him around all the great dive sites Culebra has to offer. He was quick to upload beautiful underwater photos from our dive. He is very knowledgable on the species and knows the environment extremely well. Heather was helpful getting my dives booked and working with my schedule. Also, they take sustainability seriously - with reusable water bottles, potable water on the boat, and a lovely shower with reef-safe products on the deck. I will absolutely be back to this magical island to explore more dive sites with Culebra Divers!
Dove with Trevor last week. This is a legit shop. I hadnt been under water and a couple years and they actually asked the question and made sure I had a refresher before going down. Small fee for the time to do this but was very fair and I felt a lot more comfortable taking a bit of time to get my head back in the game. Pleasant crew overall. Good instructions on the dives. Both dives I did were quality dives and certainly worth the trip. One of the better shops Ive dove with.
Wasnt able to dive because injured ankle badly, full refund because I cancelled within 24hrs of dive, awesome, not everyone does that 🤙🏻
Very efficient and professional. After reserving online, I showed up and was in the boat with all my gear within 5 minutes. Friendly and knowledgeable staff too. Highly recommended.
Had a fantastic experience at Culebra Divers. Trevor is a top notch dive master with extensive knowledge of the area and local species. The rental gear was of excellent quality. Above all, beautiful reefs and tons of wildlife!
Hands down best diving center in Culebra and Puerto Rico! Ive been diving with Trevor Cooke and his team in Culebra for a few years now every time I visit Culebra and its always fantastic. We have been diving for years and we keep coming back because the team is so great and Culebra is beautiful.If you are new to diving I totally recommend it as the groups are small and Trevor is super friendly and great at explaining everything. If you are more advanced you will not be disappointed either as Trevor and his team run dives in small groups, his diving center is close to the main road and their equipment is in great shape. I recommend you book 1-2 days of diving, stay at an Airbnb and take another day to explore Culebra.
We did a two tank dive on 8/10/19 and absolutely loved it. Trevor and Heather are fantastic! Trevor has a great eye to point out many things we would not have seen on our own. An octopus, lobster, box crab, and an arrowhead crab. We nearly donated a Go Pro to the dive site, but they were helpful to recover it floating on the surface. Not many places would do such a thing. They have their dock positioned behind their shop which makes it convenient if you are bringing any of your own gear. I can’t say enough nice things about Culebra Divers. We plan use them again in the future.
Went in for some dive socks and the gentlemen working was so friendly and helpful. He helped us find what we were looking for AND pointed some snorkel spots out that we had missed on the map. Definitely recommend stopping in!
Thanks a lot to Walter, Todd and their staff. They helped me to plan my proposal under the sea. They are very nice, patient, thoughtful, and professional. The entire proposal went smoothly with their guidance. We wont have a perfect and memorable proposal in such wonderful sea world without their help. My wife was surprised in the entire trip. Another super lucky thing is Walter is a professional photographer as well. He recorded the whole process perfectly. They also prepared champagne which surprised me at the end. Thank you all again.
Heather is simply a wonderful and generous human being. It is more than just that the snorkel equipment I rented was perfect --which it was. It is more than how easy it was to rent from her, and how accommodating she was of my various blunders. It is even more than her patience and enthusiasm explaining the process by which I could become certified to scuba. What really impressed me was her willingness to go above and beyond what any reasonable shop owner should be expected to do: namely, when I had a small emergency related to not being able to get off the island (which seemed like it was going to cause me to miss a flight in San Juan) the owners of this shop helped me troubleshoot my various options, and ended up saving my trip. Outstanding kindness and excellent service. Thank you.
My wife and I did 5 2 tank dives and a night dive. Loved the dives and loved Trevor and Heather. I highly recommend them!
Great price and super nice and knowledgeable people! We snorkeled at Luis Pena. Felt very safe and saw beautiful coral and fish. We will definitely go with them again.
My daughter and I visited Culebra for the first time last year when she was twelve and did a discovery dive with Culebra Divers. They were very accommodating and attentive with my daughters first dive. She was excited enough about and decided to go through the certification process. We did the online learning and pool portion of the certification process in New York City where we live. And this Christmas, we returned to Culebra to complete the open water portion of the certification. Culebra Divers were really good, making sure we did the required exercise while having fun as well. Their guide to divers ratio is always excellent. We always feel like we are in a private session.The only unfortunately part is that they do not rent equipment to certified divers if it is not part of the guided dives with them. Otherwise, highly recommended.
Went with my girlfriend on a discover scuba and had nothing to complain about. I have done the same in Thailand with PADI divers and it is an amazing experience that every one should try while in Culebra.Very nice instructor called Walther, the clear and warm waters of Culebra is very nice to dive in.
I had a great experience diving with them! They were super laid back, and was super pumped how much time we got to stay down! Would definitely recommend diving with them. Also saw the mother of all stringrays, I will post a pic when I get home from my go pro :)
Awesome!! Great place, very understanding and they go through everything very carefully!
Great service and fair pricing in the store.Helped us out replacing a broken mask and saved our snorkeling vacation.
I did the 2-tank dive with them. They couldnt be much nicer, all personnel at the store and in the boat were extra nice and helpful. They also take completely care of the gear, i didnt need to worry at all, they make it so easy and enjoyable. And the dives... awesome!! great forest of gorgonians, turtles, lobsters, spotted eagles, hogfish, etc incredible
I visited Culebra for vacation over the summer and wanted to check out the local diving scene and Culebra Divers did not disappoint! The whole crew was very professional, fom working with Heather to book my trip, to Todd and Trevor taking me out for the dives. The whole process was a breeze and the crew made sure everything was taken care of. The dive sites were an excellent example of what the Caribbean has to offer with calm, clear waters and plenty of hard and soft corals! I definitely recommended Culebra Divers to anyone looking for superb diving experience!
My husband and I went to Culebra and called Heather to reserve and she was super nice, Amanda at the shop was really helpful and the diver guide is the best! 100% recommended
I always make it a goal to do 2 to 3 dives every year in Puerto Rico but last year I was not able, and I wanted to make sure I was really going to enjoy it. Prior to selecting which of the various scuba diving tours in Culebra I read the reviews and considered the amount and its rating score, in addition to calling.Culebra Divers is managed by Trevor and Heather and they are amazing. They are very attentive, flexible and understanding to my needs as a customer. On December 6th, 2018 I arrived at the business first impression was great they have abeautifully organized shop. Heather and Trevor were very courteous and welcoming. They had everything setup in the back by the dock. They even had like six masks for me to try to make sure I had one that fit me right (this was amazing!) Good mask is key to a great dive.The boat had a nice setup, clean and well organized. Trevor took the time to explain the details of the trip and inquired nicely to evaluate my experience and my comfort level. I really enjoyed that Trevor was always attentive of my comfort level. I loved the level of commitment to safety that Trevor displayed. He explained everything nicely and clearly.I did the half day two-dive tour which I highly recommend (one dive will have you wanting for more). The first dive was at around 70ft and the second near 50ft. It was amazing I saw all kinds of coral and marine life. I saw jelly fish, lobsters, stingray, lion fish, trunk fish, big eye fish, pufferfish, eels and so much more. Visibility was great. I really enjoyed my experience with Culebra Divers and I will go to them for future dives in Culebra. This diving experience is the best thus far. I have written a small number of reviews and do so for business that deserves it.
Just spent a terrific week on Culebra diving with Todd Plaia. He and everyone on staff are friendly and knowledgeable. The boats are comfortable 6-packs well designed for diving, so you get a very personal experience and dont have to work too hard. The reefs are healthy and there are plenty of varied sites to visit; most are a short ride out so you leave the dock at civilized times. Heather Cooke was great to work with getting our trip planned; she provided lots of good info in advance.Besides offering top-notch dive service, they also have experienced instructors for all types of certs. Non-divers can rent snorkeling gear and get recommendations for the best spots to see the shallow reef and grass bed sealife. The shop is also probably one of the best places on the island to pick up t-shirts, hats and other trip keepsakes.Well be back next year!
Were seasoned snorkelers, whatever that means - the two pairs of masks that we rented were both in poor working order and the fins were permanently bent out of shape. We returned them an hour after renting (no refund or adjustment) and rented elsewhere and had much better gear (for less money).
Heather, trevor, and john were so friendly, informative and fun. We rented snorkle gear which fit perfectly and I had the most amazing dive experience of my life. Even though that was in fact the first dive of my life, they made it much more comfortable than i expected and show us some beautifully rich places on the sea floor.We really look forward to returning someday and welcome you all to kauai anyday...
Amaizing crew there, very knowledgeable and friendly!
So helpful! Great and honest people!
Excellent service
