Summary: My wife and I just completed an Octopus dive morning with Great Escape PR. Our guide was Hayden and he was fantastic. Friendly, accommodating, and professional, he made the trip easy. Octo diving is a good cross between snorkeling and SCUBA diving that allows for easy swimming and diving down on the reef (Steps Beach, Rincon PR.) Great family adventure and introduction to reef wildlife and SCUBA. Its easier than snorkeling!

Summary: My guide was very nice! The water conditions were not great and we didn't really see anything. Usually, when I've been snorkeling, we get some sort of antifogger, but didn't receive any and really could have used it. The scuba made ma nauseated. Overall, it was cool, but I'm not sure I would do it again.
