Lorne's story
Jolene the GRUMPY one (smile) and I the HAPPY one(smile) decided to move here with our 3 kids 9 years ago from Canada to start a new life. Just last year we were awarded Belizean Citizenship.We chose Belize for many reasons including the fact that the Belize Barrier Reef is one of the largest and most pristine reef systems in the world. As well as english being the first language in Belize. We started a private service scuba dive instruction and snorkeling business because it was active, healthy and we like people.
Jolene's Story
Lorne, the GRUMPY one and I, the HAPPY ONE started out working as instructors and guides for several Dive Shops. We soon learned that volume on the boat was what the dive shops wanted. We understood that but it was not what we wanted.We wanted to talk to people, spend time, relax and have fun. So we started our own Private Service company. The response has been wonderful. We are NOT A DIVE SHOP and are not into profit by numbers. This is what makes our family business special. We keep your group private, no one else on the boat and schedule to your desire. Please visit the Cudos Page and read a newspaper article about us on the About Us Page.
We would like to welcome those people with small children, the elderly, those with special needs and those that are physically challenged. CLICK HERE for more information.
These 2 pictures below are of me watching my fingers in the Marine Preserve!!

These picture are taken in the Marine Reserve. Close encounters are the norm here and many have been thrilled by how close they can get to marine life. The marine life here is protected and not afraid of you.

This a is a great chance to experience something unique. There are many other spots less frequented and a few of our 'secret spots' that we love to take our customers to.

With us you can relax. No need to get up at 6am if you do not want to. We work around the schedules of our customers.

No need to be worried about being pushed through your dive training. After all learning to Scuba should be fun!!

Coming from Toronto we never thought we would be doing stuff like this! . Jolene feeding the Great Frigate off our boat
