I’m an experienced diver, but this was my first local dive. I felt welcome and valued from the first moment. The boat and dive crew were great, and the dive sites were interesting. Divemaster Will pointed out critters of interest, and we were fortunate to have good visibility. I’ll definitely be back for more diving with this company.

Such a great shop! My only complaint was that we only got to dive with them one day. Office team was great, boat team was top shelf, and the dives were AWESOME. Will definitely use them next time we're in Destin.

I am so glad I chose ScubaTech for my 18 and 13 year old son and daughter's open water certification dives. Wendy and Peter were great dive masters and the crew were so friendly and helpful. Well worth the drive down from Atlanta.
