Best trip

Published on May, 2019

Very knowledgeable, fun, and entertaining. The diving was amazing and the dive master was able to point out amazing fish and rays. Drinks provided were excellent and the beach and food was too. Overall 10/10 would recommend.

Beautiful Reef, Excellent Day

Published on Aug, 2018

I thought this might turn out to be a negative review by me because they were nearly 2 hours late picking me up at the hotel and I had no idea what was wrong... I eventually got an email from Chantel telling me they were 10 minutes out... The van arrived and rushed me to another waiting van and off we went. Tour was supposed to leave the dock at 9:30am but we didn't arrive until after 10:45... Boat was waiting. I felt bad for all those who had to wait for us. But after taking to Joel, the dive master, it turned out it wasn't the translation company, they delayed picking people up due to a marginal weather forecast with a tropical storm looming. Once it was clear that the transportation company didn't simply forget me, and the trip began, all was great. Joel is excellent and tailored the dives to my personal interests. Water was balmy and crystal clear. Lunch on the beach was decent. The beach at Catalina Island was beautiful. Overall, after the initial issues, was a great day with excellent people. I stayed in Uvero Alto, so be aware that La Romana, where the dock is located, is a long drive away. With dropping others off at their hotels it took nearly 2 hours to get back to my hotel. Even with all that, I give it an excellent recommendation, just be aware and prepared for the long drive of you're not staying closer to the dock. My only criticism would be for Passion Paradise to be more proactive about giving updates to patrons if there is going to be a delay. Not knowing what was going on was frustrating.
