This operation is ran or managed by an individual that doesn't understand basic customer service.
I booked a 2 tank dive online for the Saturday that I was planning to be in Key Largo. When I received the written confirmation after booking online, their system chose a date one week later. When I notified the operator by email of the date miscue, I asked if they could move my reservation back to the date I'm in town or they could just cancel the wrong booking date. A seemingly simple question with 2 alternatives.
Wow, I received a super berating email response (see photo of email)

Where do I even begin? My partner and I were taking a quick trip to Key Largo and wanted to dive for a day while there. I scoped out some shops online and decided to book a half day 2-dive trip for both of us with full gear rental. The communication leading up to the day was clear and concise from the shop and I was able to prepay ahead of time for everything. We arrived on the day of our tour and checked in, completed waivers, and got fitted for gear before boarding the boat and heading out. Little did I know, my partner was planning a surprise proposal (underwater during our second dive) and

Wonderful experience and great people! My friends and I stopped here on our way to the Dry Tortugas. I have never been snorkeling, so I had no idea what to expect. Jen and Chris took time with all of us to help us find the correct gear and also educate us. I am so excited to go snorkeling now because of the experience I had at Sailfish Scuba shop.

I'm so happy I dove with Sail Fish Scuba in Key Largo! I didn't want to dive with a cattle boat which led me to finding them, and their 5 star reviews had me sold. I did four dives on the first day and loved it so much that I signed up to go again the next day. I'm so glad I did because we did the USS Spiegel Grove wreck and I had my first bull shark experience (that I know of) and it swam up behind me from 10 feet away by the US flag which is a moment that I will NEVER forget. The captain is hilarious and the crew were so personable, kind and helpful. Really felt like a family,

My husband and I signed up for the PADI Open Water scuba certification. We spent two days working with Tom and learning how to become scuba divers. Those two days were incredible! The crew, captain, Tom, and Jen, were all so helpful, patient, supportive, and encouraging! Tom has the patience of a saint and such a zen personality it made learning fun! Tom really helped to make this a positive experience especially for my husband who had some issues with figuring out his neutral buoyancy. Thank you to everyone at the dive shop! You’re the best! We will definitely be returning!

We have been coming to Sail Fish Scuba for 6 years now and they never disappoint. They take amazing care of you and remember their repeat customers well! They always do their best to take you to your requested sites. I also LOVE that they take photos of you while you’re diving. No other place does that and they are free! I can’t say enough great things about them, you’ll just have to come and experience for yourself!

We had an awesome time diving with Sailfish in Key Largo. The whole crew from the owners Jennifer and Chris, to our divemaster Tom, Captain Bill and 1st mate Mike, and our dive buddies Steve & Ashley all gave us an A+ exceptional experience.
A friendly crew, clean and spacious dive boat and small dive group all led to an awesome day...oh and don't forget the diving itself...we were lucky enough to dive their "UNICORN"...the sunken ship USCGC Bibb. Plus an awesome reef dive dive on the Molasses reef to follow it up.
Warm waters, awesome visibility, sharks, morays, lobsters and fish, fish, fish

Booked a trip to get scuba certified. Michael Jordan was amazing! He was extremely knowledgeable and made us feel comfortable and safe. The first time underwater my son made the "not okay" sign and Mikey had him to the surface immediately. He was patient with everyone and precise in training. Sail Fish Scuba provided 2 scuba masters for our family of 4. If you are looking for top notch this is your stop!

I've been diving with this crew for 6 years now and make it a point to come back at least once a year. I love coming back to see the same folks and they do such an awesome job taking pictures of you while diving - which are all free on their flickr account. They always have snacks after the dives and have a great set up where you can leave your gear if you're diving with them back to back days.
They sell lots of cool gadgets here. They are a full service dive shop and they do gear service here too.

This weekend I got the opportunity to have an amazing time with my son and my brother with the guys at Sail Fish Scuba. Jen was fantastic from the beginning and Mike and Rick were amazing instructors as we finished up our open water scuba certification and the rest of the crew was so nice and helpful on every aspect. I was so happy with their service and expertise. I would recommend them to anyone.
It was so surreal experiencing this with my son in the beautiful blue water in the florida keys. My son did so amazing and my brother provided the comic relief we needed. It is so unbelievably surreal

Our family of 5 came from Oklahoma to Key Largo on vacation. I had a goal of getting us all scuba certified in the dive capital of the world. None of us had ever done scuba before, and I wondered many times what I could ha e been thinking to try something so out of my comfort zone on vacation. I quickly realized the value of great instruction when learning to breathe under water. Mike and Tom were beyond amazing. Absolutely incredible to see these men at work doing what they love and patiently teaching the new and uneasy how to explore a new world. I can’t imagine there could be two better instructors

We were recommended Sail Fish Scuba by friends who had a fantastic experience and we were excited for the adventure. Needless to say we were not disappointed. The staff was so friendly, knowledgeable and helpful. I was traveling with young girls and everyone on board pitched in to make sure everyone felt comfortable and well instructed before be dived in as well as once we were in the water.
Our guide helped us on and off the boat and took lots of photos of us and the sea life once in the water. We highly recommend these guys for an amazing day out at sea.

Top notch scuba tours. Smaller, more personal diving experience. We booked multi day dives a couple months before our trip to Key Largo. Prior to our outings with Sail Fish, we had a couple days booked with a different dive operator to complete our advanced open water certifications. However, high swells prevented those dives from taking place. Jen & Chris took a look at the dives we booked with them and saw they'd work for our PADI advanced courses and agreed they could convert our original bookings to complete our certification. Mind you, this was a bit of a wrench to

Jen and Chris love what they do. There is no doubt that you can sign up with many dive tours in the Key Largo area, but Sail Fish Scuba really go out of their way to make every detail part of the normal service. If you need prescription masks, they've got them. Need some stuff to get all the salty water out of your ears after a dive, they've got that too. On top of coming out of the dive with some of the best photos around (I mean, what is your dive without some proof to make your friends jealous on social media!?!). Inst. Mike and Inst. Tom are the best in the Keys. I have dived with this team

Fantastic dive shop! I was only open water certified and when I called the shop asking about advanced open water and rescue diver they somehow managed to slot me in for that same weekend! Completed the online portions in a day and the next three days were with the awesome crew of the Deeper dive boat and my incredibly knowledgeable instructor, Tom! Dove a lot of places in those three days such as the Benwood wreck during the day and at night and reefs like Molasses which is one of my favorite places. Tom was a great instructor and took me through the course material and tasks first and then we

Sail Fish Scuba is the best dive shop I have had the honor to dive with. My wife booked a surprise two tank dive here to mark 15 years of marriage and it was the best gift she could have gotten me. I have been diving in many places and I can honestly say that the reef dive I did here was the most beautiful and rich dive I have ever experienced. On top of the amazing service and nearly brand new equipment this company takes photos of the entire trip for you for free!!!! I now have amazing memories and photos to keep as a reminder of my wifes gift to me to mark our 15 year milestone. I love this

I have been diving for 30 years and this was the most friendly and efficient company I've ever been with. We drove down because it was raining in the Lauderdale area and from the minute we walked in we knew it was going to be fun. From the owner, Jennifer, to dive master Tom and crew Mike and Matt, they took great care of us. Captain Bill even found dolphins for us! I have multiple sclerosis and Mike was great at assisting me up the ladder. We saw a lot of marine life and they are very protective of the environment. The visibility was 70-90 feet and the ocean was calm. We will be using Sail

We had a wonderful experience with Sail Fish Scuba! Tom (the snorkel guide) was great with all of the people in our group. He told us stories and history of the area. He was very knowledgeable about the marine life as well. Two of our group did a dive trip and got the chance to see some awesome shipwreck sites. We'd definitely use this shop again for both snorkel and dive trips!

This is a small shop owned by a couple who has plenty of diving experience and is really good at explaining what's ahead, what you'll need and the conditions to expect each day.
I did my open water certification at another shop and found this one to be much more personal. When I went for my advanced course with my boyfriend at Sailfish, I was nervous about starting the advanced open water course after a rough day at sea where I felt a little seasick. Without being pushy, Jen and Chris talked me through specifically what to expect the next day which really helped me make my decision
