“Professional, personable and safety-oriented”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 25 May 2012 NEW

For our honeymoon, my wife and I chose to go SCUBA diving on St. Thomas. She studied for her certification at our local dive shop here in Cleveland, and Aqua Action in St. Thomas came highly recommended for her open water certification dive. We were not disappointed. Sam & Diane are the owners of this well run operation. The crew... More

“Fantastic experience”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 20 May 2012

we just spent three fantastic days diving with Aqua action. The owners (Sam and Diane) and our dive master (Brian) and diver master-in-training (Linda) were all very friendly and helpful. We went to some really nice dive sites. We will definitely go diving again with them next time we visit St. Thomas! More

I first contacted Aqua Action and another dive center via e-mail. Aqua Action were quick and helpful in their response (never heard from the other place). I completed the PADI e-learning course online then planned to dive with Aqua Action to complete my Open Diver cert the first full day we were on the island. A flight cancellation caused me... More

“Outstanding!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 21 April 2012

What separates one Dive Operation from another ...the people! The shop owner Sam instructed my 12 year old daughter in an intro to diving course which included a 15' shore dive. 2 days later we went on a boat dive together and did a 2 tank dive at 2 different locations. Sam made the experience for me, my daughter and... More
