We booked a 2 tank guided tour with full rentals, and the overall experience was perfect. The staff was very friendly and helpfull, and the gear was of good quality and in a good shape. Furthermore the diving itself was beautiful, and our dive guide Brandon did an amazing job. We already had cold water experience, although it would not have been necessary given the easy conditions and the instructions given by the dive guide.

Great dive shop! The staff are truly the best. I did my open water here in 2018 and fell in love with diving after diving Monterey. The staff are super knowledgeable and will do whatever they can to ensure that your diving experience is the best. The club dives are also great and a good way to meet fellow divers as well as discover new sites. I cannot recommend Aquarius enough!

Go elsewhere for dive certification! With all their hidden fees its $800 for open water which is way more than other dive shops. Terrible customer service. Manager wont even take the time to talk with you.

This is an excellent dive shop for tours. I did the 2 tank dive with them twice now an both experiences were excellent! The website works great to schedule the dive and rent any gear you need. They offer packages for both 1 tank dives and 2 tank dives. you can also rent individual pieces of gear at a separate coast for each piece. getting the gear in the shop was easy and they made sure that everything fit and worked properly before heading to the site. They even provided a box that made everything easy to transport in my car. My guide was also excellent he made sure my group knew everything they needed to know before the dive. If you are a new diver I would recommend this shop as they took us to an excellent dive site for all experience levels (San Carlos beach). When returning the gear they made it easy all I had to do was drop everything back at the shop and they handled the rest. I would highly recommend this shop for diving on your next trip to Monterey.

My husband, son and I recently rented equipment to snorkel in the kelp forest. The entire process was very organized and very professional. Upon making our reservations, we were asked to provide details regarding height, weight, shoe size. Everything was ready for us when we showed up, and they explained how to put on the equipment in order to best protect us from the very chilly water. They were happy to answer our questions and even recommended several snorkel spots. The snorkel experience itself was absolutely one-of-a-kind, and the good people at Aquarius Dive Shop helped make it possible!

As a PADI professional, I do not recommend getting your tanks or rental gear from Aquarius Dive Shop. Weve had issues before with workers being rude and faulty equipment rentals, but now the shop is just blatantly neglectful.Today was the last straw. My friends were given a tank filled to 4500 psi and rental gear that can only withstand a maximum of 4000 psi. When I brought this up when returning our gear, they mentioned that this had been a regular issue with the people that have been filling the tanks. That is extremely dangerous and someone is going to get seriously hurt either at the shop from a tank explosion on the compressor or from their pressure gauge exploding when opening an overfilled tank.Ive been diving for 14 years all over the world and have never been so neglectfully given a tank with such an extreme fill. This is so preventable and they are obviously not taking diving regulations and safety seriously at Aquarius.On top of the overfilled tank, my friends were given two computers that did not have working batteries. (Not the first time theyve handed out non working computers to us) Their rental gear was not prepped even with a reservation and they had to wait for over an hour to get all their gear.Additionally, one of the other tanks blew its valve, froze shut, and the tank dropped to 1500 psi so we could only dive for 15 minutes. Not worth your time or your life. Take your business elsewhere.

The impeccable quality of their rental gear is really important given the coldness of the water. Nick is a great dive guide.

Yesterday my fiancé and I went on a dive tour with the Aquarius Dive shop for the first time. The team was very informative and friendly. They were able to quickly assist us with any of our questions and gear. I will definitely being diving with Aquarius again as our dive guide, Dane was super calm and very personable.

As a first time cold water diver, Aquarius was the perfect dive shop to explore the Monterey coast with. I was impressed by how organized our rental gear experience was, they had everything pulled and ready for each of us to try on. The guides were all very knowledgeable and gave great dive briefings, and were extremely accommodating to anything we needed or had trouble with. We did both day dives and a night dive. Definitely recommend!
