My son did this and loved it!

Coki Beach Dive Centre was incredible! I can say how professional this company was. We felt totally safe. As for value for the money, I don't think it could have been any better. We were picked up right at the gangway and driven directly to Coki beach. The dry land instruction and shallow water famil lasted for about 40 minutes total. They we spent 30-40 minutes exploring the reef in goroups of our max (for safety). The coral and sealife were amazing! Book early!

the instructor is super uptight she will not let you leave if you do not check off the medical condition waiver all in the box that your ok and nothing is wrong with you. but that because scuba is really hard. i have never done scuba before. the snorkel and goggle they give you are really cheap and not sure if they are sanitized. if you have your own goggle but if the instructor since it is not the right material she will not let you go scuba with the group. the water kept going inside the goggles and it was really dangerous for me. i liked the private residential beach they took us to.

I took my first scuba-dive, and it was a fairly good experience. We dove near a wreak in about 38 feet of water. Saw lots of lovely coral, sponges, and tropical fish. After a short scuba experience, I snorkeled. Really beautiful cove and lots of sea life. I saw a good-sized barracuda and a tuna. My dive course was very straight-forward, informative, and well-organized. The gear was in excellent condition, and I felt very safe. We dove in groups of three and our instructor, though a no-nonsense sort of guy, was also VERY into safety and precautions. I very much appreciated that, since this was my first experience. I highly recommend this diving experience to anyone who's adventurous and would like to try diving. As a result, I may take a class now and try to get some more experience towards certification. :) Good-times!

I had been told that St. Thomas was boring, but I actually found it beautiful and the snorkeling was good. (I was supposed to scuba, but couldn't deal with it.) It's cheesy, but we actually enjoyed our drinks and Mexican food at Senor Frog's!

St Thomas is a favorite of mine, we went to Cokie Beach and did the beginners scuba diving, well started to I chickened out but my daughter went and had a ball, I ended up snorkeling and it was a really great snorkeling area, lots of fish that you can hand feed. Had a really good time there.

Husband and Son used Blue Island Divers for our dive trip and they were great. Excellent service and top notch divers. Daughter and I took at taxi to Sapphire Beach. Despite the rain we had a great time there, the snorkeling was awesome. Then we took a cab into town for shopping. Only issue is with the cabs. We understand that they want to be full and can appreciate that but it is very anoying that when grab a cab, the driver spends 20 mins on the way back to the ship driving slowly trying to get more customers instead of driving you back to your cab.
