We just went diving with Papa Hog's. They did a really good job for us. Everybody from Mike to the crew seem to really care, which translated to a great experience for us. Our Dive master did a fantastic job. Our only negative was the single restroom and the lack of a changing room. More

We have dived with Papa Hogs ( Mike & Margaret ) and all of their dive masters for many years. Our last trip was just 2 weeks ago. Every trip the service, guidance and knowledge of the whole operation was beyond expectations. We will not dive with any other operation unless they cannot accommodate us. That has never happened yet.... More

Spent a week on the island and did my diving with Papa Hog's this time around. The divemasters and boat crew were OK, but there were some communications issues between the office and the dive center. Don't expect anything more than water on the surface interval. More

My husband and I used Papa Hog's for our snorkeling trip while on our cruise. The owners were great and we got to chat with them for a bit. Very nice people! We had two tour guides and they took us to three different areas to snorkel. One guide was in the water with us while the other guide stayed... More

We had 2 certified divers and 2 snorkelers. We were able to stay together for the trip. Papa Hogs was very reasonably priced and very helpful. I would recommend. Short taxi ride from port. $6 for 4 of us. Easy walk back so we could shop. More

I just got back from another week of diving with Papa's. As usual, a great experience. When I broke my wife's BCD tank belt the DM was quick back to the dock no questions asked for a loaner. When we got back after diving her BCD was fixed and ready to go. And such is typical of Papa's service. The... More

My friend and I went here on a recommendation. On our second dive my friend had to abort the dive and ascend because she could not get any air. She didn't have enough air to reach me because she had just exhaled and she would have had to swim against the current. She is an extremely experienced diver, so for... More

My friend and I dove here because it was recommended by one of our colleagues. During our second dive with them, I had an equipment malfunction and was forced to make an Controlled Emergency Swimming Accent. Here is the report from ATOMIC after I sent in my equipment for inspection: The Cobalt records the tank pressure every few seconds throughout... More

We have dove with Papa Hogs for 3 yrs now a couple of times each year and have had nothing but great service. They will be the only dive shop we dive with when there, the dive masters and boat captains are really like family. If you have specific things your trying to see or get pics of they will... More
