"I have been diving the Keys since 1992 and have gone out on every major dive operation in the Upper and Middle Keys. Last month I decided to dive with Ocean Quest Dive Center for the first time. I had a newly certified diver (certified in a lake in Texas), who knew nothing about boat diving or ocean diving.
From the minute we arrived, Sonny and Ed were excellent. Their skill, knowledge, professionalism and friendliness met or exceeded any of my prior experiences with other operators. The boat was clean and well maintained... Uncrowded, relaxed, safe, courteous and fun.
... Sonny and Ed made every day of diving great! Seeing a spotted eagle ray and a sea turtle on the same dive was amazing. There were plently of other marine life we enjoyed on our dives including nurse sharks and barraccuda.
I have been telling my new dive partner not to get used to such quality service and great dive experiences. Ocean Quest Dive Center has set a standard that no one else in the Florida Keys have ever come close to. I will never again dive with the "big" operators and their cattle-boats. The quality and professionalism of your program exceeds them all. "-Scott
".....your service was excellent, and we would definitely use you again on our next dive excursion. I have been on other dive boats and your attention to detail stood out." -DAVE
"I have been diving with you many, many times. Have tried a few others and have always returned to you. Now I don't even bother with anyone but you." - Nick
"Thanks for the great dive on Friday Your boat and staff are really top notch. Loved The Eagle and loved the Dive Goddess reef. I included one of my turtle pix for your viewing. Hope to dive with you again in the future." -MJB
" It was a pleasure diving with your operation. I will certainly keep you in mind for our dive team training. We usually try and head to the Keys once or twice a year, weather and schedules permitting. Your operation was very professional yet laid back at the same time. Thanks again for your help and I am sure I will see you soon." - Ryan

"I would like to tell you what a wonderful staff you have and how much we enjoyed our vacation. This was our first diving experience and I can't begin to tell you how nervous we were. Thanks to Sonny, and of course the others, we were not afraid or uncomfortable whatsoever. I was a little nervous after the first trip with Leo, not that he wasn't any good, he did great considering how many DSD's he had, but I wasn't sure that I wanted to go back out. Of course Wendy would not hear of that so they set us up with Sonny.
Thanks to him we all want to get certified through you guys. I hope I haven't wasted too much of your time. I just wanted to let you know what a wonderful crew you have. " - Thanks a Billion Chasity
