Amazing Dive Shop!
From Jen’s warm, exuberant welcome at the beginning of our first day, to Chris’ quickly and expertly fixing a free flow issue with my octo at the end of the day, I understand why Sail Fish Scuba popped up immediately when I searched for the best dive shop in Key Largo. The warmth and genuine nature we experienced right off the bat set the tone for a really good day, and sweet Tom’s unbelievable and kind patience with me - a new diver still getting her fins wet - made my baby diver hiccups seem SO much less “end of the world”. With just eight blue water dives under my belt as of our first dive with Sail Fish Scuba, I was (and still am) working on my air consumption. That, coupled with a very unexpected and fairly strong current put me in a position during the first dive where I just couldn’t catch my breath, so we called it 18 minutes in. I had a beast of a time trying to get back on the boat and somewhere in the process lost a weight pouch. Needless to say, I felt pretty defeated. But Tom was incredibly supportive and helped me take it all in stride. By our last dive of the day we clocked 42 minutes, which is super good for me. The second half of the second day, I had some issues with a 90 foot dive that ended up being just a little too deep for my confidence level, and Tom quickly and expertly took care of me, and with incredible ease. His patience is off the charts, and his encouragement is unsurpassed. At the end of each day, Tom took our personally-owned equipment back to the shop to rinse and ready for the next day. Unbeknownst to me until later, he took it upon himself to rummage through the “lost and found” bin the first day and found a replacement weight pouch for me. On our final day, I asked Jen where we could find a gas station with an air compressor to air up our rental car’s tires. She told me they could take care of it, disappeared in a flash, and came back with an air tank and adaptor. We were able to get the tires aired up right there in the parking lot! These folks are pure gold - platinum really - and they’ve gone so far above and beyond anything we could have expected out of a dive shop. They gave us such a wonderfully memorable honeymoon dive trip that my wife and I had already discussed coming back to dive with Sail Fish Scuba and Tom before we’d even finished our last dives. We will abso-LUTELY not dive with anyone else in Key Largo. If you’re looking for a dive shop in Largo, do yourself the biggest favor and just book with Sail Fish Scuba. You won’t be sorry.
