My partner and I went out with dive savaii recentlyand they were fantastic! I dove, and Tina was the best possible guide; calm, safe and patient with a novice diver. Saw turtles which was my absolute dream. Would highly recommend them.

Awesome friendly German couple with a great group of Samoans that will take you on fantastic snorkelling, recreational Padi dives or formal Padi dives for people with licence! Highly recommend to everyone to visit!

Olaf runs a very reliable dive shop with safety a priority. The diving is just minutes away by boat with some great corals and a good wreck dive - all under 20m.

This was a great trip. It was 60WST each. Left at 10:30am and took 3+ hours.

We had already snorkeled off the beach where the boat launched but it was great to get out beyond the edge of the reef to see some different fish and even TURTLES!

I was surprised that the boat didn't take us that far out to see but it doesn't really need to. You travel to 3 locations, the 1st is the drop-off and we saw Nemo and a couple of cruising turtles. The 2nd was over a shipwreck, which was interesting but no fish (only a short stop this one). The 3rd was into the coral gardens which were very beautiful and full of pretty fish.

A guide escorts the group in the water and you are encouraged to snorkel in pairs for safety though we stretched this rule a little.

Our trip included both snorkelers and divers. Divers have a slightly different location structure but both groups are accommodated well within the structure of the trip.

I wholeheartedly recommend this trip to anyone who is into snorkeling or diving. It is really easy and fun.

Would highly recommend!
We went diving with Olaf at Savaii to 2 different sites.
I have dived over 30 times, and never have felt as confident and assured as diving with Olaf, he is a very competent dive master. We saw an array of fish, turtles, octopus and different coral.
Olaf and Tina care passionately about the reef at their door step and regularly do a collection of crown of thorns, to help save the precious ocean environment.
My husband lost our dive camera whilst diving (plastic dive cable failed) Olaf thankfully found in the tunnel.
Fresh fruit and water was offered between dives. There was also 3 local guys to help you on with gear and heavy tanks.
Note if you are only going to dive once whilst at Samoa, Sav'aii is the place to do it as it did not suffer the damage of the tsunami that Upolu did.
Note they do not have card facilities, but they are happy to take you to the local atm to get out the required monies.
