This is my 9th trip to Roatan and with West Bay Divers! I trained with this shop in 2023 and keep coming back because of Joel and the amazing captains and staff. Having dived in different countries now, I realize how top notch and concierge this shop is. Joel goes out of his way to show us new places and new creatures under the water. I highly recommend this shop to all levels of divers.

This was my second visit to Roatan, and without hesitation, I booked all my dives with West Bay Divers, and specifically with Joel, who has become more than just a dive guide; he’s a friend. From start to finish, the entire team makes everything effortless! Safety is their top priority, and it shows in every detail. The gear is in excellent condition, and you can use it anytime to snorkel right off the shore. Joel goes above and beyond every single time. Not only is he an incredible dive master with a deep knowledge of the reefs and marine life, but he also captures stunning underwater photos and videos during your dives and shares them with you afterward. It’s such a fantastic way to remember the dives. The entire staff is warm, professional, and genuinely passionate about what they do. You feel like part of the family from the moment you walk in. I can’t recommend West Bay Divers enough. Joel, thank you for making every dive unforgettable. I’ll absolutely be back for more fun!

We had an amazing time diving with West Bay Divers and in particular, our guide Callum. This was truly a full service operation- we dived multiple days and the our gear was set up for us each dive on the boat everyday without needing to carry anything. We were even able to leave our masks and fins. Callum even applied antifog to our masks in between dives. We did a night dive which was spectacular with the bioluminescence. Callum had a book to show us the anticipated species ahead of time and was very proficient w fish identification and a kind and safety oriented individual. The equipment was top notch w integrated BCDs and very new wetsuits w front zips. 10/10 would definitely come again.

This was some of the best diving I have done in a long while. It had been a few years since I had dove last, the refresher was quick, easy, and informative. It rained a couple days there, but diving was still immaculate. Staff, especially Abner, was very friendly and accommodating. Barney was great at communicating and coordinating when weather was iffy and if there would be diving that day. The dive sites were beautiful and will forever be a wonderful memory. Mary's place was a one of a kind location! The shop is right next to the beach and easily accessible by walking on the beach or a short drive if staying in West Bay. Renting equipment was a breeze and made the experience very care-free. If you intend on diving for multiple days, they write your name on a locker that you can lock belongings in and have your gear below. I highly recommend this dive shop. The staff, dives, and experience is surely one to remember for many many years. Abner was the best dive instructor; he had such a keen eye for locating animals like sea horses and nudibranchs! We saw like 5 seahorses in one dive! Abner also found the tiniest brittle stars, banded coral shrimp, hawksbill turtle, moray eels, channel clinging crab, neck crab, yellowline arrow crab, caribbean spiny lobsters, long spine urchins, spotted drums, silversides, cowfish, many trumpet fish, many different colored parrot fish, porcupine fish, needle fish, large grey angelfish and even a scorpion fish! There are so many dive locations around the island, but the ease of just walking from the shop, onto the beach, into one of their boats and a short 2-10 minute boat ride to some of the clearest water and best reefs, is tough to beat. If diving on the south side of the island, it can be about a 30 minute van ride but same thing when on the boat, the dive locations are short boat trips. I will definitely be returning and diving here again!

Seahorses and Lionfish🤘 West Bay Divers continue to provide a phenomenal experience. One on one dive with Mekayla with the hopes of dominating some lionfish!!! We both got the chance to kill some and then we got to see Jerry the seahorse calling our name to come say HI😍 Perfect dive day😎 Mekayla and the whole staff provide such hospitality and safety that i'll never go anywhere else💙 Everything from the details and overview of each dive to the amount of awareness of the reef and its abundance of sea life. This is dive 50 with them and i can't wait for the 50🌴 Thx Mekayla and Barny😘

We had an amazing week with West Bay Divers! The service was amazing from everyone, and especially from our Dive Master Takeshi. We were well taken care of from start to finish. Beyond diving, the three of us (my wife and daughter) did a night dive, a shark dive, and took the PADI Enriched Air course as we dove. The diving was amazing, and the bioluminescence we saw on the night dive was bucket list material. I can't say enough about how well we were taken care of, and I would give the whole group a 5 star plus rating!

Takechi our dive guide for a five day scuba experience was the best five day trip we have taken… the company was first class. The boats were the best there and all the employees did the very best to insure we were made to feel at home. A place and company we will definitely return to.

This dive shop is truly a “top shelf” operation, 10/10! Everyone on staff was very accommodating and kind. The staff took care all dive equipment maintenance (preparation, loading, changing tanks between divers, and recording the dive information for log books)… all we had to do was enjoy the dive! Arturo was our guide for all 5 dives (including one night dive). He knew all the best dive sites to go to and helped us to see so much marine life, including octopus, a huge green turtle, and a couple of rays. Arturo was also great on getting everyone home safely, while being an excellent photographer/videographer. I cannot rate this dice shop high enough! If you’re contemplating diving in Roatan, you must use West Bay Divers!

Fantastic week of diving with West Bay. In particular Gaby was absolutely amazing and was so glad to stick w her all week. She was great at spotting macro life as well as rays. The best dive spots. All the boat drivers were safe, kind and clearly experienced. Never left waiting on the surface. The gear I brought was so well taken care of. Come to West Bay and ask for Gaby!
