    Excellent service! Picked up on time, amazing guide, and an experience I will remember for a life time. We did the ScoobaDoo and I can’t tell you how incredible that was.

    My recent visit to Scape Park in Punta Cana was an exceptional experience, greatly enhanced by the ease of reservation and organization. The process of booking was straightforward and hassle-free, setting a relaxing tone for the trip. Additionally, the coordination for pickup and return was impressively smooth. The van ride, equipped with air conditioning, offered a comfortable journey to and from the park, allowing me to enjoy the scenic route in total comfort. The ranch and the water holes were the highlights of the park, providing a serene escape into nature. The staff’s commitment to excellent service made the trip feel like a true getaway to paradise. Highly recommended for a stress-free and delightful adventure. Can’t wait to return! 🇩🇴

    Dived with these guys for 2 days , March 2024. 2 days 2 tanks per day 7.30-3pm days
    Easy to arrange with Kate in the office who was on the ball with contact.
    Picked up timely and returned with no issue from the hotel each day.
    Day 1 Carlos was my guide. Very professional experienced guide who knew his stuff. We dived a coral garden type dive and saw some big sting rays amongst all the great and beautiful marine life.
    2nd day a wreck ( Atlantic Princess) .. awesome dive , my best wreck to date.. loads of life and easy to safely partially penetrate with Carlos Guiding

    2 day guided by Evan .. again professional . Switched on guide and was a pleasure to dive with.

    Similar dives ( my choice ) but saw much more life this time, more sting rays, eagle rays , lobster , sea horses , cannons , cannon balls and a load more..

    Back to wreck for 2nd dive and really explored it with Evan’s expert guidance, awesome fun! And a up close a personal encounter with big old Baracuda!!

    These guys are utterly professional , safe and a fun centre to dive with. I’d throughly recommend them . They are up with some of the best guides I’ve had . Incuded in the deal is the pictures/ video footage they take of your dive. if you are looking to dive in the Dominican then give them a call
    . Thanks guys and hope to see again some day.. 🤟

    Late Pickup, snorkeling was ok and the scubadoo experience I thought it would be more hands on. Also I saw a different tour that offered the scubadoo and there were like 20 of them in the water at all times which for a big group was super nice meanwhile we only had three working and one even looked all rusty.

    I’ll preface this with my husband and I have dove many locations around the world since certification in 1991. We are experienced (hundreds of dives). This trip was with our adult children and their partners. We chose El Portillo BECAUSE there was a dive centre at the resort and I had communicated with Alba and was reassured we could dive as a family (2 of the party are not certified).
    Don’t dive with them. This is the worst dive centre we have ever encountered. They are not safe and the equipment needs a complete overhaul.
    Dive Day 1.
    Seas were rolling and the larger of the two boats took fishermen out leaving the divers with a small boat not set up for diving. First dive was a mainly dead reef with very little sealife of living coral. Surface interval back on shore. Second dive we were all hesitant as we were seasick from the first experience but it was forfeit the money or dive…we should have forfeited. Staff changed tanks during the surface interval except they missed my daughter’s… Seas are about 20-25 foot rollers everyone is just trying to get off the boat and yes, my daughter did not double check her tank. 10 minutes into the dive she was at 10 bar. She was at the back of the group and told Sergio (dive master at the back of the group) her problem. He indicated stay put he’d swim and tell Alba (lead dive master) at the front what was happening… she indicated no, she had no air and needed to go up…now, there are a couple things that should have happened from a simple noise maker to get Alba’s attention to putting my daughter on his secondary and swimming to Alba… instead, Sergio and my daughter surfaced, they changed her tank and then went back down. Near the end of the dive, I gave Alba my camera so she could do a family picture for us…except my daughter was not with us and this was the first time Alba figured that out. We surfaced in huge swells, the anchor was stuck, Alba had to descend to release it, thankfully Sergio had an SMB and about 15 minutes later it surfaced about 100 feet from the boat.
    Conclusion: seas were too rough for the size of the boat and the number of people and gear, dive masters had no means of communication and insufficient training/separation strategy.
    Dive Day 2
    We refused to dive off El Portillo in the worsening conditions the next or subsequent day. We paid a transfer fee and dove Samana Bay but only the certified divers could go. Wall dive was ok…Alba had warned us the visibility wasn’t great but we chose that over unsafe sea conditions. Alba was the only dive master with 4 certified divers. I provided her with my noise maker for underwater communication. Alba swam her route with very little attention paid to the rest of us. One diver never did descend to the 60 foot dive parameter as he was underweighted. When we turned to come back he got in trouble in the current and I ascended and brought him lower and forward. We managed to catch up to the rest of the group where I was able to tell Alba he needed more weight.
    Second dive was shallow and a wreck. Great dive until my daughter’s regulator disintegrated in her mouth while she was inhaling. We handled the emergency and Alba eventually joined us on surface. It’s kind of like she was just going for a swim herself not working as a dive master ensuring the safety of the divers.
    Of special note, the damaged equipment was simply hung back up for reuse!
    Conclusion: equipment in need of maintenance and inattentive dive master.

    We had a great time with the instructor Hector. He was a lot of fun to work with and very easy to get along with. We had a great first time scuba!
