C	Christa Wani on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ I did Discovery diving with Chris yesterday and their kindness and customer service was absolutely amazing. I would recommend taking any course from them. He helped me get over my fears and I had a lovely time!!
L	Larry Trestleview on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ You might think given the accolades (below) that I am related to Wilson Diving, I can assure you I'm not. I cannot believe how wonderful an experience I had in the store. I am a long distance open ocean swimmer and swim in the Gorge daily. I bought all manner of swim gloves and socks but my hands and feet were freezing, turning white and numb from cold until I bought open cell socks and 7mm mitts from Chris and Tim. Chris even lent me his own equipment to try, who does that these days! You might pay a little more than the mega size billionaire companies but you're not going to get personalized service with a smile. You'll get a package on your doorstep and invariably have to return it. Not at Wilson's. They will bend over backwards for you and sell you precisely what you need. I highly, highly recommend this company to anyone thinking about buying diving, swimming or snorkeling paraphernalia.
M	Matthew Hwong on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ On a vacation trip, I chose to obtain my open water certification through Wilson Diving. Chris and Tim were incredibly helpful instructors, more than willing to go the extra mile whether it came to planning with specific requests for scheduling, making sure I had the gear for a comfortable dive, and even things that caught my off guard like reviewing the wildlife we had seen on our trip after the dive. My first experiences into the diving world was daunting, as they would be for most people, but my confidence grew incredibly quickly under their careful instruction. The attention to detail to ensure you have mastery over the skills and constant feedback and recommendations to improve are amazing. In the 3 days, not once did I feel rushed or pressured into making a purchase. Instead, I was met with people who truly cared that the equipment were fit perfectly for my needs. Every concern I presented was dealt with quickly with careful consideration. Truly, this is a business built on being good neighbors and I can only hope all of my future diving experiences are met with people of equal passion and care. As somebody with no diving store available in my city, I hope to return often to Wilson's as my home base and supplier, because I know with the experience between the two of the instructors, it's hard to be steered wrong. If you want to start off you experience on the right foot, look no further.
L	Leticia Hargreaves on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Highly recommended this shop! All staff super personable & friendly. Completed my open water diving cert here & loved it.
R	Rachel Huber on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ I live out in Sooke and this is my local shop. It's one turn off Sooke Highway in Langford, so easily accessible. Chris and the staff are professional and super helpful. Gear repairs have been great and they have a quick turn around time for tank fills. I'd recommend this Dive Center.
J	Jordan Hayes on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Chris was amazing to work with and made sure I was comfortable the whole time during my lessons. I am so thankful I went there for my classes and I can't wait for all the adventures I can go on now! ??
c	cougar560427 on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ I was going to Victoria for 5 days last week, and wanted 1 day for diving. This would be my first time diving in Victoria, and after my drysuit course. After the first dive shop didn't email me back, after 2 phone calls, a friend told me to call Chris @ Wilson Diving. Wow! I'm so glad that I did. Chris was great, emailed some idea's within the hour. I was booked on a boat charter with my own personal Dive guide, for a 2 tank dive trip. Chris even picked me up at my hotel, then to his shop for a gear fitting. Monica was my dive master, she was Great ! very friendly, knowledgeable, and just a great person. The Captain and his crew of the boat were fantastic. I cannot wait to go back and dive with Wilson Diving. I would highly recommend them.
J	Jamie Goncalves on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ I had a great experience here with Chris and the staff. I took my open water dive course and everything was very personalized, so I feel like I got the best experience out of it. Planning dive dates was convenient and flexible to my schedule. The price was extremely fair compared to other dive shops in Victoria and the mainland. Overall had a great experience and definitely recommend this dive shop!
