Great Diving Experience with Makayla - Our experience diving at West Bay Divers was excellent. My GF and I had Makayla as an instructor and she was really great and patient with us. We did a refresh and discovery dive. Would highly recommend anyone from Roatan to dive here.

Great Diving Experience! - We had an amazing time diving with West Bay Divers!
Our instructor, Kelvin, was professional, knowledgeable, and very attentive. He showed us some wonderful underwater sights and made sure our diving experience was safe and fun. He also certified my daughter during our trip. She felt confident and at ease with the help of his instruction.
The entire staff at West Bay Divers was friendly and we felt well taken care of every step of the way.
I highly recommend West Bay Divers to anyone looking to dive in Roatan. We'll definitely be diving with them again when we return!

PADI open water certification - Got all three of our teen children open water certified scuba diving and took a family dive on their last day. It was great and our instructor. Mekala was perfect with all of us. We needed a refresher course cause it was 20 years since our last dive
We also stayed at the Kimpton. Both were five star and highly recommend.

Great certification experience - My son and I completed our Open Water scuba certification with West Bay Divers and had a fantastic experience. Joel was our instructor, and he is very knowledgeable and thorough but also made it VERY fun - he is always smiling and kept us laughing while we were learning. He also pointed out a lot of marine life during our dives - more than I expected to see! I highly recommend them!

Highly recommend dive shop and instructor Joel! - We had an unbelievable experience with West Bay Dive. A full week of open water PADI cert for the kids, and dives for the whole family. We probably did 8 dives in total? It was completely custom to what our family wanted - we added throughout the week, we felt 100% safe with our instructor Joel - and they took great care of our family at all times. Joel was completely knowledgeable about all marine life, he pointed out and identified countless fish, rays, crabs, turtles and more. They are all wonderful stewards of conservation on the reef at all times. If you want to dive in Roatan - I cannot recommend this organization enough - and request Joel for your whole week! He will take great care of you - no matter what kind of dive experience you are looking for.

Core memories were made certifying my kids at West Bay Dicers with Arturo!! - Fantastic experience for my 12yo daughter and 14yo son getting their padi open water certifications! Arturo was the most wonderful, knowledgeable and kind instructor! I recommend him as a teacher and dive master 100%. My husband and I joined the kids on their open water dives. He pointed out so many fish from a huge barracuda down to a tiny pipe fish, jaw fish to puffer fish. He also showed us a spotted moray eel, sting rays, and turtles…just an abundance of wildlife! Arturo will be certifying our other two kids (in a few years)! The entire operation is a beautiful dance of professionalism (Barny guided us on every step) and organization from our dive lockers to our groupings. Best dive shop I’ve ever interacted with!!

Amazing dive shop - I can’t say enough good things about this dive shop. The instructors, boat captains, and staff are amazing and always helpful. I can honestly say I don’t think I would have gotten my Open water certification without the help of Joel, my dive instructor. Joel was exceptional in every way, he calmed and encouraged me when I needed it. He always provided positive comments to help me succeed as well as provided positive feedback. I’m headed down now to get the next level of training from Joel. I have been looking forward to this trip all year! My thanks to the entire West Bay Dive team for everything they do for their fellow divers!

Great experience - highly recommend! - Our resort (Grand Roatan) had offered a “try to scuba” class in their pool for free. This is hosted by West Bay Divers. We let our daughter (11 years old) try it out. Sean was the instructor and he was amazing! So patient, kind and easy going. He was very thorough and you can tell safety and comfort (of his students) are of utmost important.
After the pool session, they offered additional diving for a fee. Which we chose to have our daughter do. She did a shore dive with Sean. They were out about 1 hr and dove to around 25-30 ft.
My daughter absolutely loved it and has been asking daily “can I go diving again?”!
Thanks to Sean and West Bay Divers for the this experience.

Open water course - Finished my open water course with Sean. He was awesome.
They were very flexible with my schedule. I wish I could have stayed longer to get more dives in before I had to go home.
