Me and my partner loved the ocean and love scuba diving, easy divers helped make it so so easy for us! They gave a a brief but detailed explanation of what we need to do and how to do it, then we went out into the sea! We saw a beautiful underwater museum and so many amazing and different fish, we been saw an octopus and a huge crab! Would 1000% recommend to any new or experienced divers. I can’t remember the names of the members of staff that we dived with but they were incredible, helped us throughout the entire experience and answered all the questions we had.

Professional and fun staff that helped put us at ease and gave us a comprehensive theory session. Great facilities that includes lockers and showers (but bring a towel!). Felt safe at all times during the dive, although it was quite physically intensive as the water was cold and abit murky. Saw lots of fish, some eels and even an octopus! Overall, a fantastic experience!

The instructors are very friendly and professional. They stuck a great balance between creating a fun, informal atmosphere while ensuring our safety and taking good care of us. An instructor named Raul was especially cool.
The dive was incredible; we had the opportunity to visit some of Europe's most beautiful seas.
Great experience for beginners, more than worth the money.

I enjoyed the whole experience and this has given me a taste of a potential new hobby. I will be looking into further training in the UK

Great Team! Very professional and friendly. I tell you, if you want to give diving a try, this is the best choice 👌
Unfortunately i didn't make it to see down deep water (will definitely try it again) but the whole time the trainers were by my side and also they gave attention to each member equally. It is 5 stars and more 🌊👌

The Skipper, Dive Masters, and staff are lovely and professional. The gear is good and well-maintained, the dive boat was clean, and the skipper, Wilson, is very helpful. Our DM was very knowledgeable, thorough, and professional. He was also a wiz navigator.
However, the actual diving was average - and this is nothing to do with the professionalism of the dive shop. Portugal isn't known for its great diving... it is the Atlantic Ocean, after all. The conditions were tough. The viz was 5 meters at best, though there was no swell or current. The water was cold - I recommend a dry suit over 7mm wetsuit.

Try dives is the place to go! If you have never been scuba diving I highly recommend starting your under water addiction with these amazing people! Guides and staff were so friendly and accommodating to needs and excellent under pressure of taking new inexperienced divers for their first tour of the ocean floor. Never fazed by any challenge and an experience of a life time seeing the underwater biodiversity of Portugal. Please try this out when you visit the Algarve still not been able to wipe the smile from my face, unfortunately in the excitement I have forgotten the instructors names apart from scotch “like the whiskey” but please do this can’t recommend enough and instructors please big yourselves up and carry on the amazing work!

Myself and my partner spent an afternoon with Try Dives on their intro dive course. The group was small which was great for an intro dive.
We did our theory and then our safety checks in their small indoor pool before heading out to the dive site.
My girlfriend didn't end up doing the open dive and I had a bit of nerves when we started but the staff were excellent and helped me out. The dive was guided extremely well and I felt safe while underwater. Saw some cool sea life even though the visibility wasn't the best (nothing they can do about that)
Would certainly recommend using them for intro dives.
Their dive shop was easy to find and the check-in/equipment process was smooth.
