By registering for this, you are scheduling one of two boat trips of open water checkout dives. Once you book, we will need to schedule your early morning pool session ahead of this date as well as schedule you for a second boat day. Please contact us so we can work with you on your instruction schedule. We can also help you get your eLearning assigned if you don't have that already. (not included, needs to be completed before beginning in-water training) It usually takes 6 - 12 hours to complete, so start well ahead of in-water day. You will begin your certification ahead of time by independently completing the online course material. You will learn skills in a confined water environment with your instructor first before you move onto to performing your skills in training dives in the open-water. All diving gear is included for your training. For boat days, we provide bottled water and snacks. The course will require at least 3 half-days in the water (or 1.5 days) to complete all requirements for open water certification.

Had a great time with Aqua Marine! From the initial phone call to arriving back at the dock everything was orderly, safe and most of all fun! Our guides were knowledgeable and made us feel like we were old friends. Would highly recommend this company. Just remember to take off your shoes or else. Cpt Stephanie may have you walk the plank!!😂❤️

I can. It say enough good things about Stephanie Blessing, Earl, David (and other crew). They are responsive, well trained and a blast to dive with. I was able to get my advanced open water and learned a ton while seeing some amazing marine life

We have been diving with Aqua Marine for many years, and we keep coming back! The staff is absolutely amazing! We love Abby, who is a fantastic dive master, Stef who captains the jet boat is great and always concerned for the guests' safety, and Zach whose tunes keep the boat trips lively! We just completed 5 dives with them, including a 4 daytime dives and a night dive, and all were AMAZING! If you want some of the best diving in the Caribbean, ask Aqua Marine to take you to the almost perfect serenity of Stef's Corner in Christmas Cove, the coral lined canyons of Straggler's Reef, the Ledges of St. James with amazingly varied life, or the amazing swim-throughs of Cow Rock. The best diving sites with absolutely the best diving operation on St. Thomas! Thank you Abby, Zack, an Stef for an absolutely AMAZING vacation!

We completed PADI open water certification check out dives with Aqua Marine Dive Center (2 teen boys). From start to finish this was a fantastic experience. After reading tons of reviews for dive shops around St Thomas, we chose Aqua Marine. Erika was awesome completing over the phone registration, answering all questions and making sure we had what we needed. She even followed up with several text messages to answer questions and provide reminders. Ben was our sons’ instructor for four dives over two days. He was incredibly helpful, patient and professional, while making tr dives a fun experience to complete certification. We could not have asked for anything different. Steph was our captain on Day 1 and was a huge help for getting the gang both in and out of the water. This was a five star experience. We have dived around the world for 20+ years and this was among the best dive centers and crews we have experienced. Thank you Team Aqua Marine Dive Center, we will be back!!

My twins (11) and I just recently completed our classwork and decided to come to St. Thomas to do our open water dive. My husband already has his Pat certification - and we wanted to diva as a family. From start to finish the people at Aqua Marine dive center have been absolutely amazing.. they walked us through the booking process were extremely knowledgeable, and we felt completely confident coming down to complete our certification. Upon our arrival it got even better! Erika was super patient with our kiddos and did an amazing job walking us through the expectations of our day. Amanda worked with my husband on his refresher certification and was outstanding as well. The kids had the best time the staff all of them Amanda, Erika, and Nate and Tom were absolutely wonderful, super friendly and really engaging.. couldn’t have asked for a better first day!

My friend and had a wonderful experience getting outlets diving certification with Aqua Marine. Kyle was awesome teaching us the ropes and made us feel comfortable throughout the entire experience. Once we were in the ocean he was able to show us all the amazing marine life around the island. Zach, Erika, Abby and Captain Tommy were also awesome and made for very fun rides to and from dive sites.

Kyle was the absolute best. He helped to keep me very calm and explain everything very thoroughly, so that I knew exactly what was expected when we got into the ocean. I had an overall amazing time diving with Kyle, Zach, Ericka, Abby, Captain Tommy, and Sam in the shop! Very excited to come back!

The team at Aqua Marine is simply amazing! I did the open water certification with Kyle - outstanding!!! He is an amazing teacher and made me feel calm & at ease the entire time - highly highly recommend Kyle if you’re going to do certification. Once on boat, Capt. Dave, ketchup (Ben), Zack, and Erika did a superb job of managing the excursion. I did 2 days with this crew on the boat - it was an amazing dive trip start to finish. We had the opportunity see see so much underwater sea life! I can’t wait to come down again soon and join the Aqua Marine team for my next dive - no need to go anywhere else. I’ve found my dive fam. Cheers!

My partner and I came down to get scuba certified and Aqua Marine was definitely the place to do it. The staff (Zach, Ben, Steph, David and Captain Tommy) were all amazing on the open water boat tours and Erica was a phenomenal instructor! She was incredibly knowledgeable, patient and kind. Would definitely go back and recommend them for your scuba trip.
