Private 2-Tank Dive with PADI Instructor for Certified Divers

Ruthie and her husband were amazing!! They made us feel at home and comfortable. Their passion for diving is contagious. They provided great drinks, food, and snacks between diving. I highly suggest booking with them. They are professionals and know how to make the most of your dive time. I have dived all over the world and the diversity of marine life was once of the best i have ever seen. Also, ruthie took video, edited it, and provided us with a copy after. 5 Stars!!

I highly recommend Sympatico. My son and I had 2 beautiful and chilled dives and good food and drink. Ruthie is an excellent dive master and guide. I don’t understand TripAdvisor’s algorithms but if you look at 5 star reviews this should be one of the highest rated charters.

We had a truly wonderful scuba and snorkel adventure thanks to Ruthie and Scotty. They really planned for everything. They were very knowledgeable and welcoming. We hope to use them again.

Ruthie and Scotty were great! Super friendly, very helpful, dedicated to making the experience unique and fun! Can't wait to book them again!

Had a great time. Ruthie did a refresher course with me and I was very relaxed and confident after a 4-5 year dry spell! Beautiful reefs in the 65’ areas off if Fajardo PR. Will go again!!!!!!

Stephen & Nanci, Monday 11 Dec; Simpatico Charters for private guided dives with Ruthie (divemaster) and Scotty (boat captain). Very windy and heavy seas. Ruthie had called us the day before and invited us to come early if we wanted to, so we got there around 1pm. Spent ½ hour getting to know each other and discussing our skill level, and current and wind issues that may affect our dives. Ruthie said we would go out toward the outlying islands and see if we could make the dives happen. If not, we would return and they would refund our money. Once we got to the lee of one of the islands, the seas were diminished and Ruthie determined we could safely dive. She reviewed safety rules and hand signals with us and we geared up (dive gear was included). Water temp 84° so no wet suits required. No current to speak of at depth of about 20-22 ft. Good 40 min fam dive to practice skills and for Ruthie to assess our abilities. Back on the boat, Scotty had chicken kabobs & corn-on-the-cob from the grill, with pasta salad, plantains & fresh apple wedges. After lunch, Ruthie decided we were quite capable of diving the reef farther out, so we moved the boat out to the reef and did our second dive. The tour was scheduled for 2-4pm, but turned out to be 1-6pm. Ruthie was a great divemaster. She never rushed us and was very considerate to make sure we got what we wanted out of our SCUBA adventure. Looking forward to going again Thursday.

Do not hesitate to book this tour. This tour is like diving with your own family. From the moment we arrived until our departure we felt right at home and Ruthie and Scotty made the day very memorable for all of us. This was my kiddos' first dive after being certified (thanks to covid) and it could not have been a more perfect setting to get them reacquainted with the whole process. Ruthie was very reassuring with them and extremely helpful with hints and tricks of the trade that helped all of us. The boat was comfortable and we were out to the reefs in no time. Ruthie knows the reef well and took great pictures and videos throughout the day and sent us an awesome video as a memento. Lunch was simple and perfect since we were ready to get back in the water as quickly as possible. The communication before our adventure was very helpful and we discussed possible weather issues and options. Ruthie even sent a helpful contact for a taxi service the day before so I could arrange getting to and from their location in advance. After diving we even had a little friendly splash contest to see who had the best dive form off the boat. The whole day was so much fun!!!! We would dive with them again in a minute.

Ruthie and Captain Scotty run an amazing dive operation! This is the most personalized diving experience I have ever had. From the moment of initial contact through our return to the dock at the end of our two days they were top notch. The boat is comfortable and never overcrowded. Captain Scotty knows his way around the ocean and Ruthie does an excellent job choosing dive sites that offer both amazing topography and fish life. We had mentioned that our cameras weren't working on one day of diving and we would love to return to one specific dive site to try and capture some photos because the fish life was amazing and they made it happen (the weather cooperated which was the go/no go call but I think Ruthie called in a favor to Mother Nature ;) ) The lunch provided during the surface interval was also top notch like everything else. Overall, had it not been for Ruthie and Captain Scotty I don't think we would have enjoyed the diving as much as we did. I cannot recommend Simpatico Charters enough and will not dive anywhere else when visiting Fajardo.

Our experience diving with Ruth and Captain Scotty was truly amazing. The boat was comfortable, the food was tasty, and the dives were beautiful. Our daughter had some issues with her ears, and Ruthie was so patient with her. Hands down the best dive experience our family has ever had.

We had a great time with Ruthie & Scott. Our family of 5 went scuba diving (2 dives). These guys are excellent hosts, knowledgeable about the dive sites, and willing to put up with our nutty family with a smile. And…best hummus I’ve ever had!
