Safe Scuba Diving with Diving Dominican Republic
Few days ago I read an article about another scuba diving accident at Key Largo Florida . It makes me so sad to read news like this, especially when I think this could be prevented. The article didn’t have any details about what went wrong. I don’t know if the woman had some equipment trouble, a medical condition or if it was just a small little thing like losing her buoyancy that escalated into a big tragedy. There isn’t any information about the exact amount of divers on the catamaran and the amount of professionals on the boat when this accident happened either.
According to statistics most scuba diving accidents happen to new, inexperienced scuba divers when diving without guidance of professionals. I am not saying all the accidents can be avoided, but the majority can be prevented.
Boats loaded with tourists
Some call it a booze cruise 
I’ve seen many touristy places in the world where dive operators take 20 – 40 divers with only 2 – 3 professionals onboard that sometimes don’t even go to the water with the clients. They just briefly tell them where to go and what they might to see and let them go down. It’s very hard to control a large group of scuba divers and make sure everybody is safe; especially with recreational – resort divers, where people of different diving skill levels and experiences are diving together. I personally believe that diving in few smaller groups and using more dive guides is much safer and more fun. That’s why I don’t dive with larger groups and I specialize in scuba diving with small groups only. I limit the amount of divers to 5-6 maximum, sometimes even less depending on their diving experience.
When I dive with newly certified divers, I usually take a MAXIMUM of three people but prefer to have only two, that way it’s much easier for me to control them. I focus more on their safety, then looking hard to find something new and unusual. There is always so much to see underwater and everything is all new for them anyways everything is exciting and makes them very happy. I never have new divers behind me, because it’s more difficult to control them without having the additional help of another dive master. I always keep them by my side, where I can see them all the time and provide assistance when they need it; before a small problem grows into a big one.
Diving with more experienced divers is a bit different; I give them more space, they always dive in pairs with a buddy and an odd diver is always my buddy. I am aware of my divers at all times making sure they dive safely and keeping myself in a position to assist anybody in need immediately.
Small groups scuba diving and snorkeling
Scuba diving and snorkeling with your family only
So far all of my clients love the way I dive with them. It doesn’t matter if they were new divers with no experience or advanced divers with lots of experience. I always give them the feeling of freedom and security at the same time. My clients can stay under water as long as the air or bottom time limits allow them; I don’t rush anywhere because I don’t have any other group of divers waiting for me to do another dive that day. If you dive with me, it is your time, your dive and your fun. I’m here just to assist you and make sure you are safe at all times. For me diving is a passion not a business and I love to share my passion with everyone.
So if you don’t like to dive on crowded boats, Contact us to enjoy great and safe scuba diving in Dominican Republic. Please make sure to book your diving trips with us ahead of time as it may be tough to accommodate you last minute when you arrive.

My brother and I got certified together, and he was very keen for us to go out on our own. There’s no way I would though, and I’m glad I’m convinced him. We’re newly certified and could definitely use some more supervision and practice. And if I ever come down to the Dominican Republic, I would love to go diving with you guys! I’ve been thinking of taking a trip to the area for a while

I wouldn’t recommend for newly certified divers to go alone. it’s always better to go diving with more a experienced diver. Please contact us when you plan your scuba diving vacation on the south coast of Dominican Republic. The diving is great, you will enjoy it here for sure!

One thing I enjoy about blog posts is the fact that they trigger a thought in my mind. As soon as that happens, I feel as I need to comment expecting it will be interesting to some people. Since there are lots of blogs and forums with completely different points of view, they encourage your thinking. It’s at these moments when you have good insignt many others may not have had, this includes the blogger herself/himself. I find myself coming back to to your internet site simply because you have various great insights and also you are actually at this a while, and that is very inspiring and tells me you know a lot. Keep going!
