November 2005 Excellent environment to do OWSI. Crystal clear waters with peaceful and well equipped centre of excellence. Resident CD is exceptional, thanks.

October 2004 Crest Dive Centre helped me get through my Junior Open Water and Junior Advanced Open Water, they were absolutely brilliant and I would say they were the best centre on the island. Cyprus also has a lot to offer for non-divers aswell and there are some excellent restaurants.

August 2005 I have been to Limassol several times, and have always dived with Crest. They are a very conscientious and professional dive centre. Limassol itself is a lovely town, with loads to do for the entire family. When they aren't diving. :o)

September 2005 I have just completed 50 dives with Crest over the last 3 years, they make a real effort to give you the dive you want, nothing is to much trouble,these guys are really into their diving, its not just about bums on seats.

June 2005 I really enjoyed my first time in Cyprus. The dive centre I used was in the grounds of the Four Seasons Hotel. They really looked after me and were a pleasure to be around. Under the water though there was not a lot of fish or colour to the coral which did surprise me. The Zenobia wreck though was fantastic. I stayed at the Atlantica Bay Hotel and it's five star rating lived up to it. It was not expensive either. Half-board and flight £680. Outside of diving I hired a jeep and went into the Troodos Mountains. Brilliant. Lounged on the beach and came home nice and relaxed. Be aware that the sun is really strong. Plenty of sunblock!! Have fun and safe diving....Mike Daniels, Peacehaven, East Sussex.

April 2004 we dived with dive-in and they were all great,,,the zen is a great dive with loads to see but in general the diving is shallow 15-20mtr easy and relaxing,,night life is 100% you'l never get fed up here.

June 2004 I especially liked Cyprus as there's lots for the family to do apart from just diving. Although Cyprus is not a hardcore diving destination, there's plenty to see if you look hard enough!
