The captain did a great job staying with us on the drift dives and picking us up. They provided great snacks and encouraged us to drink as much water or soda as we needed. Skip was a great deckhand and helped us find everything we needed. We even met Fred(erika) the pelican and my wife had a lifetime wish fulfilled getting close to and feeding a pelican. Overall we loved our time on the Aqualife with Skip and the captain and look forward to being on their boat again next trip!!

do not recommend diving with this operator due to multiple serious safety concerns, poor…read moreorganization, and unprofessional customer service. I prepaid for a two-tank Nitrox dive approximately one week before the trip. When I arrived at the boat, there were no Nitrox tanks available for me despite my reservation and prepayment. Brad repeatedly counted tanks and passengers but could not determine why my tanks were missing. It was eventually discovered that another diver had taken the tanks I had reserved and paid for, set up his gear, and used them without having a prior reservation or payment. Rather than reclaiming the tanks that had been reserved for me, Brad arranged to use tanks that a friend happened to have in the back of his car. These replacement tanks raised several concerns. They were not properly labeled, had no visible inspection stickers, and there was no way for me to know when they had last been inspected, serviced, or how they had been filled. One tank had a damaged O-ring that required replacement before it could be used. Additionally, the replacement tanks were not secured when brought aboard. One fell over onto the deck, causing the valve handle to break off. This seemed to me that the handle had been corroded. I was also inconvenienced by having to reconfigure my gear to accommodate a steel cylinder instead of the tank type I had reserved. After the first dive, I set up for the second dive and discovered that my replacement tank contained only 2,500 PSI rather than a full fill. When I brought this to Brad's attention, his response was dismissive and unprofessional. I explained that I had reserved and paid for full Nitrox tanks and expected to receive what I had purchased. Rather than addressing the issue professionally, he became confrontational and aggressively stated that he would "comp the tanks." The most concerning issue occurred after the second dive. The boat began departing the pickup location while two divers were still in the water, visible at the surface with their dive flag. Brad had to shout to the captain that divers were still in the water, forcing the captain to stop and reverse course to retrieve them. Starting the engine and moving the vessel while divers are still in the water is an extremely serious safety concern and could have resulted in severe injury or worse. The trip concluded with passengers being required to climb approximately five feet from the boat to the dock using an unstable ladder, creating yet another safety concern. Overall, this operation appeared poorly organized and inadequately prepared for foreseeable issues. There were no readily available backup tanks, equipment handling practices were questionable, and customer service was lacking. Most importantly, several situations raised significant safety concerns that no diver should have to experience. Based on my experience, I cannot recommend this operator.

We have been booking with Parrot Island for years and have worked with them many, many times. Our…read moreexperience has consistently been professional, friendly, and reliable. We book throughout the year for adaptive diving groups, veteran groups, and recreational sport dives, which often means coordinating groups with different needs, schedules, and logistics. We need to be able to depend on the operators we work with, and Parrot Island has always been dependable and easy to work with. Communication has been professional, and we have always felt that our groups were well taken care of. Most importantly for us, they know their business and keep safety foremost in how they operate. When you are bringing adaptive divers and veterans aboard, that matters tremendously. We would not continue booking year after year if we did not have confidence in both their professionalism and their commitment to safety. They are also simply a joy to work with. We genuinely appreciate the relationship we have built with Parrot Island over the years and look forward to many more dives with them. We are happy to recommend them based on our own years of experience.

Jerry is incredibly unprofessional. I called over a month ago to book dives. He told me he would…read moretext me to gather all of the details. I never heard from him so I texted him at least 7 times & also called his shop several times (with no answer), one time his son answered just so I could make sure we were still on the books. His son had no idea about the booking but told me he confirmed we were good to go. I still couldn't get ahold of Jerry. Finally a week before the trip I called and Jerry answered. He was extremely condescending, scolding me for not following up on the booking and saying he "never heard back from me" in such a rude and misogynistic tone. He changed his tune really quick when I told him I have been trying to get a hold of him for at least a month, and also spoke to his son who confirmed the dives (he had no idea). He then expected me to still trust his professionalism and use his service. No thanks. As a business owner I find it appalling to scold your potential clients for YOUR own neglect. Do better.
