Just got done with my first dive trip. Went to Key Largo and Quiessence Dive shop. I got my certification on August 30th, and arrived in FL on Sept 4. Quiessence took great care of all 18 of us. So the waves were 3-4 ft and current rather strong. But first 6 dives awesome and I saw a lot if marine life, a couple wreck dives, and Christ of the Abyss. 6th dive I got in the waterr at Elbow Reef, needed some antifog, got away from the line on the boat. I had to work hard to get back to the boat. Couldn’t do it so the captain, Don from Quiessence, saw that I was in trouble and got the dive leader to take me to the boat line. My dive buddy Wayne towed me in to the boat. I got in the boat and Captain Don took excellent care of me. He made me feel safe, we joked around after I was relaxed and Wayne stayed with me too They were professional and caring. I was able to rest and continued down on the next dive of the day a while later. I highly recommend this dive shop and their experts who operate the place. From the front desk to the brand new equipment I rented to the dock services I was treated with respect and consideration as a new diver. Kudos to Quiessence if Key Largo! Forever grateful for the first successful dive trip of my scuba career!!! Melanie from Tipp City Oh with the Scuba Shack in Florence KY
