So...what do divers really think about our boat crew?   What do the boat crews think about the divers?

 

Q: Why are there 2 prices listed?  The first price is for everyone, the second price is for our very spoiled 5-Star dive club members.

Q: What do the "cert" levels mean?  Some dives require additional certifications and/or experience levels. MDA was the first dive shop on Guam to limit some dives tothose with more experience.  A full explanation is right here.

 

Pleae note: Due to the ever increasing cost of diesel fuel (and our boats drink a lot of it) we have been forced to add on a slight additional charge for most of the dive locations, effective July 1st. The price indicates below is the total price including the fuel surcharge.
