A great crew for diving in Key West. Captain Mike, Drew, Palmer, and Dean are all great. Dean did a great job of guiding the dive and pointing out sealife. The Phoenix is a nice boat, and the shop and boat are easy to get to. Will definitely dive with them again.

We had a great first-time dive with Southpoint Divers! I can't say enough about Palmer and how he handled the dive and our anxieties. He is knowledgeable and a very calming instructor/diver! My husband and I sat out the last dive, but we had no concerns sending her down with Palmer on the second dive site.

Thank you Drew for the guided reef dives! We appreciate you taking the time with us as newer divers and making sure we were able to see a wide range of wildlife!
