We literally just got back from and incredible day of diving with Dressel. My wife and I finished our scuba certification literally a week before our trip to DR and only had one day to dive on our short vacation. I'm so glad we decided to spend it with this crew. First of all Lucia who answered my many emails... More

Me and my girlfriend dived with Dressel Divers. It was a team of young but experienced divers relaxed and joyful. We didn't felt ourselves one second insecure in the water. In one dive we saw baracudas, lionfish and trumpetfish. Especially an Italian guy called Marcello joined us in our dive and made us feel like "fish in the water". We... More

My husband & I did "Discover Scuba", which consist of: 1 classroom, 1 pool session, & 2 dives. We took our 2 dives @ Saona Island, which was BEAUTIFUL! I would highly recommend doing your dives there. We saw so many fish, stingrays, & sea turtles. The coral was beautiful & colorful, too. Our classroom instructor was David, who was... More

When my wife and I decided to take a trip to Punta Cana this year the Scuba Diving aspect was opportunistic. I went on line and did a bit of research on Dressel Divers and actually was expecting the average resort type dive experience. A boat full of first time wide eyed guppies and a couple of experienced divers in... More

We had an excellent time diving with Dressel Divers. Our trip to Saona Island was simply awesome. Many thanks to the folks at Dressel who made the trip even more special - David Barlic, Selina and Andre. The entire excursion to Saona was an experience I will never forget! One of the most memorable days of diving ever!

Our first scuba diving experience was amazing with Dressel Divers at Iberostar Bavaro. Elisa, whom we met at the scuba trial by the pool, taught us the first steps in the pool, and explained how much fun it would be to go to the ocean. She was very professional, funny, and we felt inspired and motivated by her and decided... More

I was on the Isla Saona scuba diving excursion on April 17, 2013. It was by far the BEST excursion that I have ever taken and possibly even one of the best days of my life. A special thanks to the Dressel Divers staff—Selina, David, Andre, Sergio, and the captain—for ensuring the day was safe and fun! If you’re curious... More

Fantastic first time diving, all the instructors were thorough and careful. Special thanks to Marcello for the training and David for the amazing dives. These guys were great. Highlight had to be the gigantic turtle and Saona beach.
