Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Open water certificate, great people, went out of their way to accommodate everyone's needs.
I was not comfortable in the ocean before this course, I'm a lot better now. I enjoy getting underwater, it's a new world.
After sales care is excellent also. Good product knowledge from shop staff is peace of mind.

The team made the PADI open water a relaxed and enjoyable experience. Although relaxed they did ensure you could compete all the key skills, to keep you safe. But you never felt pressured and they were happy to help you repeat a skill until you got it right.

Overall professional instructors and a great company to help with your dive experience.

Give them a go you won’t go wrong!

I completed their PADI open water course over two weekends in January 2016. I would recommend the course to anyone who is interested in diving. The instructors are friendly and knowledgeable. I had my own mask, snorkel, booties, gloves, and fins but everything else was provided. The gear they provided was good and they took the time to ensure it was suitable for each person. The second weekend we went diving in Kaikoura, which was awesome.

I really enjoyed the open water diver course and found the instructors to be very kind and patient. I had the opportunity to work with both Colin and Lewis and I appreciated that they took the time to work with everyone individually to ensure that we were all confident and comfortable. The course was lots of fun and the accommodation in Kaikoura was lovely. I highly recommend this location to anyone thinking of doing the open water course. The gear that was provided for the course was in great condition and the quality of instruction was very good
