Why dive with us

An exclusive service, built around your holiday.

Personalised courses, try dives, reef, deep diving, wrecks, cave and cavern diving, and trips to Bayahibe, Saona and Catalina for snorkelling and diving — with private transport and everything adapted to your dates.

  • Four divers per instructor

    Every guided dive runs in small groups — never more than four divers with one instructor.

  • Private transport

    We pick you up in the Punta Cana area and take you to Bayahibe. You bring your swimsuit.

  • Gear included

    Full equipment, plus specialist kit: backplates, sidemount and twin tanks at no extra cost.

  • Reef, wreck and cave

    Caribbean reefs, wrecks, and crystal-clear freshwater caves. Few centres are certified to guide all three.

At Dominican Divers we are living a dream, and we want to share it with you.

The local trips.

  • Reefs and wrecks

    Bayahibe · half day

    Bayahibe is the divers’ destination in the Dominican Republic: reefs full of colour and marine life, deep wrecks like the St. George and shallow ones like the Atlantic Princess, which certified divers and beginners can both dive.

The kit you dive with

XDEEP ZEOS, at no extra cost.

Complimentary use of the industry-leading XDEEP ZEOS gear with any diving service you book. Most centres charge extra for equipment like this: here you dive with the same kit we would take down ourselves.

XDEEP ZEOS backplate-and-wing BCD
  • XDEEP ZEOS

    Included

    Backplate-and-wing BCD. Stable in trim, and it holds you level instead of tipping you upright.

  • XDEEP Sidemount

    US$ 25 per two dives

    For cave and wreck penetration, where a single tank on your back will not fit through. It carries two regulators, so it is the one piece of kit we charge for.

  • Full standard kit

    Included

    Tank, weights, regulator, mask and fins, serviced and checked before every departure.

Bring only your swimsuit. Tell us your size when you book and it will be ready on the boat.

Before you book

Questions we get
every single day.

If yours is not here, ask us on WhatsApp — we answer in minutes, not days.

  • For the dive packages, yes — they are built for certified divers. If you have never dived, start with the Discover Scuba Diving course: a short theory session, a practice in confined water, and then a guided dive with an instructor beside you the whole time. Tell us your level when you write and we will point you to the right one.

  • The certified guide, private transport from your hotel, and the full diving equipment — tank, weights, regulator, BCD, mask and fins, including the XDEEP ZEOS gear at no extra cost (sidemount and twins are US$ 25 per two dives). Courses also include the SSI digital materials and all certification fees. Food and drinks are not included except on the island trips, which come with buffet lunch.

  • Yes. Private transport is included in every package. Tell us the name of your hotel and your arrival date when you book, and we agree a pick-up time that fits your day.

  • Two dives per day, morning and after a surface interval, so a 6 Dive Package runs across three days and a course is spread the same way. Packages are personal and non-transferable, and the dives can be spread over your stay — tell us your dates and we plan them with you.

  • Bayahibe is where the diving happens, and it is not only reef. We run cargo wrecks resting upright — St. George, Atlantic Princess, Monica — reefs like Aquarium and Turtle Reef, and flooded cave systems such as Padre Nuestro and Chicho, which few centres are certified to guide. What you dive depends on your level and the conditions that day.

  • Two or three days is usually enough, and in high season a week gives us more room to plan. If you are already here, message us anyway — we often have space the next morning.

  • Safety comes first: if sea conditions are not right we move the dive to another day of your stay, or refund it if that is not possible. We decide in the morning and tell you as early as we can so it does not ruin your day.

  • The minimum age is 10 for the introductory dive and 12 for certification courses. You will fill in a standard medical questionnaire; some conditions (heart, lungs, ears, pregnancy) need a doctor to sign off. Tell us in advance and we will walk you through it.

  • Italo, SSI Instructor Trainer and IANTD Technical Cave Instructor. He runs the centre himself and guides every dive, so you get the same instructor from the first briefing to the last ascent.
