We dived for 3 days, 6 dives with Academy Bay. We booked the dives online before getting there. Hugo, Alice and their team is professional and reliable. They where reasonably on time in the morning to pick us up at the hotel, diving material was good quality, they offer breakfast and lunch and free photos and videos of the dive....

Put a $150 down on a dive trip... when we showed up late it was AMF. We called the captain hoping to catch our own boat to the dive site and join the group late, however, the captain said no way. We then waited around most of the morning for the shop to open and the Austrailian lady also said...

Our tourist service contract, which you signed, clearly states that if you are late, sick or miss the dive trip for any reason that is not related to us you forfeit your payment. I am very sorry that you slept in, but the boat waited for 30 minutes and as you were 1 hour late it was already 30 minutes...

Friendly and professional Def recommend this company Thanks Alice Divemaster and crew were excellent abc knowledgeable and made sure we were all having fun and smiling
Took a snorkeling trip with these guys out to Bahia Academia and surroundings. Fantastic snorkeling, although the water was a little cool (normal for this time of year). Trip lasted >2hrs. Visited two sites in Bahia Academia and then stopped at a trail for cliff-diving. I think we paid around $30. Great time!
My wife and I spent the whole of February on the Galapagos Islands. We booked all our tours and did all our diving with Academy Bay. The dive boat, dive equipment and dive masters were all fantastic. The tours, accommodation and the friendly approach from start to finish from the shop staff was great. I noticed a couple of bad...

I arrived in the Galapagos and went into Academy Bay Dive Center as they are located right across the street from where the bus from the airport drops you off. The girl at the counter was from Australia and was very friendly. I booked a cruise on the Fragata from her for what I thought was a pretty good price....

As I said when you came off the cruise, I am very sorry that you did feel it stood up to what I described. I had never had anything but good reports from that boat so I was confident in what I was selling to you. When I spoke to the company about your complaints they asked you to write...

MY spouse I booked a land tour to the center of Santa Cruz Island. The booking agents were 2 young women from Australia and provide good service and valuable information. We paid in advance and made arrangements to be picked up at our hotel at 8am. We were ready & waiting but no driver/guide appeared. I went to the agency...

I would like to apologise again for the tour you had booked and did not receive. I had problems with 2 of my drivers that morning, both promising they were on their way to get you. I know this does not help you with your missed tour but I would like to assure you this does not happen frequently and...

Academy bay dive center is more than a dive center. Not only are they welcoming, well organised and safe taking you diving, they can also help you book your land cruise. We dived with them 4 days and saw amazing wildlife on every dive. We kept coming back because we loved the diving but also how they ran the dive...
