My partner and I did the Heron Bridge daytime and night dives with Pura Vida on New Year's day - it was the perfect way to start the year! We were guided by Mark and he was an amazing divemaster and guide. He led at the perfect pace (giving us enough time to stop by each coral structure to peek into holes) and was very attentive and focused on safety & fun. There was no rush to get into the water which gave everyone adequate time to double check all our gear and after walking into the water, we did a safety check which was a great opportunity to review and check gear before doing the dive (this was one of the only shops I've dove with that have done this intentional group safety check which showed how much they prioritize safety). Pura Vida Divers will definitely be the dive shop we book all future Palm Beach area dives through!

I had a great time diving with Pura Vida Divers! I did the Blue Heron Bridge dive and Goliath Grouper dives with them and hired a private guide for both. I am so glad I did since it was my first time diving in the area, and I did not have a buddy. Alaina and I had a beautiful night dive at Blue Heron Bridge! Christian was great to dive with on the Goliath Grouper dives and knew his was around the wrecks, allowing me to fully enjoy the dives! Captain Jason and all the boat crew not only made the day extremely fun, but it was evident safety was a priority with thorough boat and dive briefings. I can’t wait to get back to dive with them again and recommend you do too.

Fantastic Experience with Pura Vida Divers I’m still fairly new to diving, with 38 dives under my belt, and I was in West Palm Beach for work, looking to fit in a dive. After reading great reviews, I decided to book a two-tank dive with Pura Vida Divers. Immediately after booking, I received a call from their team asking for additional details. I'm really glad they reached out because they explained that the dive was a drift dive—something I hadn’t done before—and recommended hiring a guide. That advice was spot on. They paired me with Rick, who was an outstanding guide and resource. He texted me right away to introduce himself and followed up with a call to go over the dive plan for the next day. The entire experience was top-notch from start to finish, and Rick made sure everything went smoothly. Thanks to Pura Vida and Rick, I had a fantastic dive, and I’m already planning to bring my family back for our next adventure. Highly recommend them for anyone diving in the area!

I had the pleasure of diving with Pura Vida divers in August of 2023 and again in May of 2024. Both experiences were excellent. Their staff is well trained and very friendly. They are very safety conscious without having a negative affect on the days diving. The reef sites we visited were a little deeper than you find further south averaging between 35 - 50 feet. We found the reefs to be in great condition and teaming with life including many different fish varieties, large turtles, and spotted eels. The visibility was 40-50 feet. I highly recommend Pura Vida if you plan to dive int he West Palm Beach area. It is also close to a lot of great restaurants and shops.

I'm new to the Palm Beaches and wanted to learn to dive, so I started researching where to go to learn. I looked for a professional, top-notch organization, and wow, did I find it--Pura Vida Divers on Singer Island is more than I hoped for. From the minute I walked in, I felt like I was "home" and part of a community. My instructor, Mark, is incredible; I don't know how I got so lucky to have him as my instructor and to have connected with PVD. Mark is very professional yet so patient and kind with me, a total beginner. I'm thrilled that Instructor Mark certified me in Open Water and Enriched Air. I had a blast and learned a ton! I look forward to continuing my dive education with him. Heck, the whole team at PVD is exceptional; they have to be to work there. Also, I purchased super equipment and received expert help from Alaina; she's so knowledgeable and sweet. PVD is the best in the business. You can learn and experience from any level and have the opportunity to continue and advance your dive education journey, all at PVD. Did I mention PVD is a 5-star IDC? (Instructor Development Center) To sum it up, let me save you time and trouble doing a bunch of research--head to Pura Vida Divers and get started!🐠🤿

This dive company is the go to place to dive and learn. Staff is always awesome. Everyone are all about safety, very knowledgeable and a pleasure to be with. There trips are on time and what they promise. Their equipment is always in perfect working order. I have taken classes as well as dove many times with Pura VidaDivers and I am always impresses with their operation. It’s all about the customer and their safety and satisfaction.

I took the intro diving class and had a great time. The dive was lead by Jorge who was informative and helpful. We went off the Blue Heron bridge and saw loads of fish. I can't wait to go again.

I had the pleasure of diving the past three days with the Pura Vida crew. EXCEPTIONAL team! On point in every way. The perfect balance of safety and fun. Shout out to Juan who was the instructor for my youngest son’s AOW class. Dean and Jason did a great job as captains getting us on reefs and wrecks. The dive crew of Dave, Mike, Lucas, Amber, and Virginia Tech dude whose name I can’t remember were amazing in and out of the water. A phenomenal dive experience!

I dive with pura vida every time I come to Florida. Amber always greets me by name and is so friendly. Both Amber and Dave are great at leading the dives and finding sea life. Jason is a great captain and keeps us safe in the water.

I have been diving with Pura Vida Divers since 2017, and I have always had a great experience. From their training to their diving, they are top-notch. Safety #1. Friendly, knowledgeable, and helpful. Always the right site, perfect drops, amazing drift pickup. The boat is always upbeat. Their dive boats are in great shape. Their dive shop is well stocked and the staff there are very friendly and knowledgeable. The selection of nitrox blends as well as tank type and size unmatched. Besides the normal aluminum tanks with normal breathing air to any certified divers using nitrox and steel, this is your go-to place.
