  False!! We had a deal 4 days before agreed term of dive. We were in contact on whatsup everyday, discusing prices, terms etc. And at the day, nobody showed up. It was my last chance to dive at the vacation and also taked 1 hour on the road to Samana for no reason. + they are lying they were there. Nobody knows them at the dock or at the island.

  Great experience! We were on a church mission trip in Samana and had a day off. Vidal and Noel planned the whole day for all 20 of us. They picked us up at 8:15 AM at the Samana public dock and brought us back there at 4:30 PM at the end of the day. Our day included beach time/beach volleyball, two snorkeling/scuba dives (18 snorkeling and 2 scuba) and a lunch buffet for all of us on the beach. Great job guys, see you next year!

  Big thanks to Vidal and Noel for a fantastic scuba experience!
  
  My wife and I stayed at Cayo Laventado for two weeks and have always wanted to try scuba. The hotel do not offer anything for beginners unless you sign up for a PADI course, but Nautilus offer a discovery dive which was great!
  
  We went on two dives after first learning how to use the equipment just off shore. The first was fab to test out our equipment in a safe environment a few meters under water. We saw lots of marine wildlife and there were dolphins in the area.
  
  The second dive was to a sunken ferry further out to sea and we were diving for a good 45 minutes. Saw Lion Fish, plenty of tropical fish and even a barracuda!
  
  Well priced and well worth a try if you have never dived before! 5 stars!

  Just stopped for 2 weeks at Cayo Laventado. We met Vidal on one of our first days on the public beach and later booked two excursions and a day snorkelling with him.
  The snorkelling - Vidal provided all the kit and took us out and gave us a personal guided tour around two locations - an island coral and a sunken shipwreck. The snorkelling was great, he knew just where to look for all kinds of fish and marine life. He was informative, knowledgeable and made us feel safe. He even took us to a deserted island and showed us around - pointing out some amazing features, wildlife and shells!
  We saw so many different fish - puffer (a huge one and smaller ones) trumpet, angel, shrimp and many many more!
  We then went to the ship wreck where there were thousands more fish - more than you could ever count. Again we were made to feel safe and had so much time there.
  
  The excursions - we booked two excursions with Vidal - El Limon Waterfalls and a trip to the National Park. Both days were great and significantly cheaper than through the Hotel or with our Travel Rep. Ironically others from our hotel went to the National Park on the same day and we're jealous of our transport and experience! Vidal took so much care to make sure we had everything catered for and for it to all run smoothly.
  
  I would not hesitate in recommending this company to anyone and would definitely use them again if we were over this way! I genuinely felt that they could not have done more to make sure our experiences were memorable & perfect! A fantastically friendly group who are passionate, friendly and enthusiastic about what they do! Thank you Vidal!! 👍🏻🏝😃🐚🦑🐠🦀👌🏻

  Great Dive Center ! The guys at NAUTILUS really knows about diving. Met there the 3 partners all very passionate about their trade. I am a novice diver with very few diving experiences, they were very knowledgeable and patient about teaching me how to go about it step by step. Went diving to the SUNKEN SHIP WRECK great sea life out there ! A lot of fish species.
  Great first diving experience in Samana Bay.
  Thanks to Noel, Alex and Vidal.
  HASTA LA PROXIMA !
