We recently returned from an awesome trip to St. Martin. While staying in Grand Case we were fortunate enough to meet Chris and Sally Davies of Octopus Diving. I completed my Open Water PADI certification with Chris as my instructor. He could not have been any more thorough and helpful in guiding me through the completion of my course. Chris... more

I've been diving with at least 10 dive operators and this was absolutelly the best shop!!! Very helpful and accomodating. more

My partner and I dove with Octopus Diving a few weeks ago (mid-September '08). Given the reviews we read online about St. Martin diving in general, we didn't know how good it would be, but based on several positive reviews about Octopus and the owners Chris and Sally and our strong desire to "just check it out anyway" we booked... more

This is the best diving operation on the island. The staff instill not only a sense of reassurance, with their dedication to safety; but are also super friendly. I really enjoyed the low number of divers they take on each trip, it makes the experience much more intimate and avoided making me feel like just another number (as another large... more

I've been snorkeling and diving with Octopus many times over the last few years, and it's always been a great experience. I don't think St. Martin is well known for its diving, but there are tons of great dive sites around the island, including great reefs and wrecks. The equipment, boat, shop are all well-maintained. The groups are small, which... more

I have been living on the island for nearly a year now and have been diving with quite a few of the dive shops on the island. Without a doubt, Octopus Diving is the best! They offer amazing dive trips at very competitive prices. I recently finished my advanced PADI certification there and I wish that all of my dives... more

Once I got to site of the dive by creole rock it was intense...but the staff like Sally et Anne made things easier. Anne my instructor aid me through... more

My wife and I visited St. Martin this past week for the first time. If you haven't been to the island, it is a must! We have been to several islands in the Caribbean and always snorkel on each island we visit. This by far was the best experience we have had. Octopus Diving limits the amount of people they... more
