Scuba Steve Belize

Located in San Pedro Town, Scuba Steve offers access to the second largest barrier reef system in the world. The centre is situated right on the beach, positioned behind the Spindrift Hotel and adjacent to Estel's Dine By The Sea on Ambergris Caye.

Whether you are looking to start your training or simply want to explore the local reef, the centre provides a direct gateway to the marine life of Belize. The location is ideal for divers wanting to base themselves in the heart of San Pedro while accessing the diverse ecosystems of the reef.

The centre is a family operation run by Scuba Steve and his son, Eugene. This small team provides a personal approach to diving, focusing on professional service and a deep knowledge of the local waters.

As a PADI affiliated centre, they provide a full range of formal training and certifications. The instructors are local experts who are deeply familiar with the specific currents and topography of the Belizean reef.

Scuba Steve offers a complete range of PADI certification courses. You can begin your journey with entry-level training or progress through the various levels of the PADI system to reach advanced qualifications.

The curriculum is designed to take divers from their first breath underwater through to more specialised skill sets, ensuring a structured progression in your diving abilities.

The local reef is home to a wide variety of marine life, including various small reef fish that populate the coral structures. You will frequently encounter Southern stingrays (Hypanus americanus) and Nurse sharks (Ginglymostoma cirratum) patrolling the sandy areas and reef edges.

In the water, you can also observe Southern stingrays as they move across the seabed. The diversity of the reef ensures that there is always something to watch, from large pelagic visitors to the smaller inhabitants of the coral heads.
