What Divers Say About Us

Captain Douglas and the crew of the H2O Below are fantastic. I have had the pleasure of diving with this crew several times. Everyone is very knowledgable and make every trip wonderful. The safety procedures of the entire operation make the trip safe and enjoyable for all. Chris and Taylor have thousands of dives in the Gulf of Mexico, and are open to sharing their experiences and this makes the trip to and from the marina and the surface interval interesting. I look forward to many future trips with this wonderful staff.

Great crew, very friendly and professional. The boat is nice and stable, well kept and they have a great line system. Getting on and off the vessel was no problem, I dove a full technical side mount system. Safety was always put first and they carry plenty of O2. Will be my charter of choice in that area. Hoping to get lots more dive with this crew.

What a great experience! I've been on the H2O Bellow a few times, and I have to say, it is the best dive boat I've been on! Captain Doug is fantastic! He's extremely aware, and through, but still has a great time. Taylor and Chris, his DMs, are so wonderful. They have so much experience and knowledge. Taylor is so full of insight and is an incredible diver. Chris is so talented and fun, he's great with newer divers. If you are planning a dive trip, I recommend this boat!
