Had a great time.
Nice, clean facilities.
Good equipment - Balanced Apeks regs, AQ Pro BCD, Scubapro Go fins, all cleaned regularly, kept organized at the shop.
Each customer gets a locker and a key card - very thoughtful and convenient for leaving valuables.
The pricing was clear with no hidden charges - no need to wait for other divers, the price was P2200 with full equipment, and that was that.
The form was also convenient to fill up - done completely online and asking for only important and relevant information. The dive shop also has their own school, so that would be very useful for those looking to book courses.
The dive itself went smooth and was plenty of fun - our guide Filip maximized our time underwater without pushing limits, and at a relaxed, easy pace. Would dive with them again to visit the other sites, especially Yapak.

My one qualm would be that dealing with them through Whatsapp was a bit more chaotic than in person - talking to their staff at the shop was very straightforward, but when I sent a message expressing my desire to book a dive, they just said "great" and heart-reacted to my response. I then had to ask about the conditiona for booking individually. Would have been less of a headache if they had just given me the policies, waiver link, and payment conditions in a single message, that is easily done and would have helped make things go smoother.

Otherwise it was very fun, safe, and professional, and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them to my diver friends and students.

Thanks guys!

Did my AOW with Gerald and New Wave divers and it’s hands down the best diving experience I’ve had so far. Very comfortable and new equipment, great service and info ahead of time via WhatsApp, friendly staff all around, good dive sites and briefings. Couldn’t be happier to have researched a lot of different places across the island and picked this one.

This Padi dive shop was very helpful and professional. The booking happened via WhatsApp and documents etc. Was filled out online. The instructors covered many nationalities and made multilingual instructions possible. The dives and briefings was conducted professionally and the equipment was modern and well maintained.

I can’t speak highly enough of New Wave Divers. They made getting my Open Water an easy process from start to finish. Filip and Julia were amazing instructors that were patient and understanding with everyone’s pace of learning. They made what could be an overwhelming experience just so much fun! They have the best attitude and love what they do, it made this course so much more enjoyable!

I did my refresher at New Wave this week after not diving for eight years. It was so great! Our instructor, Troy, was lovely, patient and helpful and everyone at the dive shop and on the boat were friendly. I was a bit anxious about getting back into it after so long, but the team at New Wave were professional and kind and made it really easy. Also, I saw my first turtle!
