I really like No Limits Scuba, especially for their commitment to education. I have done OW and AOW with NLS, and my experience was nothing positive. Instructors are knowledgeable, attentive, supportive, and patient. The focus is not on learning skills to pass the test but rather to become a safe and reliable diver beyond particular classes so that you can enjoy diving. They, for example, encourage you to join them at the pool even if you are not enrolled in a class so that you can maintain and improve skills. Another thing I really like about NLS is its family-friendliness and its friendly community of divers. We are a family of three with a variety of diving skills, interests, and experiences (I'm the mother and most novice), and NLS staff have a variety of suggestions and range of options to make our diving trips enjoyable and meaningful for everyone in the family. I look forward to taking more classes and participating in the diving trips with NLS divers!
