The shop
Shore diving first
Brenda is founder and owner, a PADI Master Scuba Diver Trainer, and Nadia is Operations Manager; the shop supplied both names and titles in October 2026. Founded in May 2013 to promote shore diving in Puerto Rico and the Caribbean, it is a PADI 5-Star IDC Dive Center and specialises in shore diving and snorkeling rather than boat diving.
It also runs courses from Open Water through Rescue and a PADI Mermaid program, and sells and services gear. The shop runs adaptive diving and snorkeling with specialised staff training. A 2022 Undercurrent review rated service and value five stars while calling the marine life somewhat below Caribbean average.
“Founded in 2013 with a simple mission: protect the ocean through education.”
