My husband went diving with Octopus and I came along to snorkel. Mick and Wez were very helpful and informative and we very much enjoyed the diversity of fish and coral near the island just offshore from Grand Case. Overall an excellent excursion!

My boyfriend and I stayed on St. Maarten before heading to a wedding on Anguilla. My Aunt had visited Octopus Diving a few years before and said it absolutely was a must do. Neither my boyfriend or I had ever done scuba diving before so we emailed Sally to set up our reservation. Sally was very welcoming in responding to... More

Not as much visiting this time on shore (everyone seemed busy), but the whole experience was great from email reservations to the trip itself.... More
