TripAdvisors give American Pro Diving Center an average of four owl eyes, and six Yelpers award it a four-star average:
- The breifing he gave was informative and stressed conservation as well as fun with the "gentle giants". After our manatee encounter, back at the shop, we were blown away by the terrific video he shot. It truly was an amazing trip! – d4fun, TripAdvisor
- The dive staff was extremely friendly and very helpful. Any time you are in Florida this is a must. – Jeff F., Yelp, 11/04/08
