    We dove with Ocean Encounters for 5 days on a local dive shop organized trip in July 2024. My family were all new divers so this was our first dive experience post-training. We had an amazing time, and the Ocean Encounters staff was exceptional! The dive sites were beautiful, and we felt safe and looked after by our dive master. Our dive master was a marine biologist and she was amazing at sighting little things to show us, and spent time talking with us about what we saw during the surface interval. Highly recommend!
