"Johnny Utah" was our dive master and he was extremely knowledgeable and observant. My sister had a mask issue and he immediately assisted her. I had issues with weight and within seconds of me floating upward he was there adding weight to my BC. On top of everything, he shared all of his wonderful videos and photos from the dive.

Two instructors named John, and Rowan, who was my instructor. It was a 1-1 ratio for us since no one else had signed up, so no crowd. They were funny as hell, too. They were a blast. When I come back to PR, I am visiting John and Rowan at Aquatica. They're my go-to guys from here on out.

John fue espectacular, tuve problemas con mi careta y no dudó en prestarme la de él. John, gracias por hacer de esta experiencia una especial y difícil de olvidar. Vimos dos tortugas y muchos peces. Perfecta manera de cerrar el año.

John our master scuba guide was patient, kind, and great to dive with. I felt comfortable with him and the equipment.

John "Johnny Utah" Bradshaw

SSI Dive Instructor · Aquatica, Aguadilla

Born in Utah, raised on Puerto Rico's reefs. John started diving in 2021 and hasn't surfaced since. At 21, he's an SSI-certified instructor with over 400 logged dives - including thresher sharks in the Philippines and every reef worth diving on the NW coast of Puerto Rico.

He'll find you the best spot, get you down safely, and probably jump off a cliff on the way back.
