THE SCUBA SHOP • DIVE SAFARIS • THE SCUBA SHOP • DIVE SAFARIS

We have 2 mouthwatering Duty Free retail stores. Our first St. Martin/St. Maarten store was opened in 1993 in Captain Oliver's Marina, Oyster Pond. Our second store opened in 1999 in La Palapa Marina, Simpson Bay, in the heart of St. Maarten's hotels and timeshare resorts. In December 2005 this Simpson Bay store, while still staying connected to La Palapa Marina, moved with Dive Safaris into newly renovated, enlarged premises. Now we really are the largest dive store in the Windward and Leeward islands.

We stock a complete selection of scuba and snorkel gear from Mares, Scubapro, AquaLung and Sherwood, dive lights from PrincetonTec, bags from Akona, dive computers from Mares,  Scubapro, Sherwood and Suunto, aluminum tanks in 3 sizes and an extensive range of goodies, gadgets and accessories to keep the most demanding diver smiling.

Please feel free to E-mail us for quotes – our prices will surprise you they are so good! We do not do mail order. We sell the old fashioned way - one on one. In our store you can touch, feel and try on the merchandise. As Authorized Dealers, all goods we stock carry their manufacturers warranty.
