Great service and great advice

We have been buying kit and getting it serviced from Mike's for years now. The staff are extremely knowledgeable and the service is always excellent. Even when small hiccups happen, they are great at sorting things out with good, timely updates and explanations. Just a really well run business with customers at the centre of what they do.

Outstanding online shopping experience

I ordered a new dive mask from Mike’s Dive Store and the experience was excellent from start to finish.

The website was easy to navigate, prices were competitive, and the checkout process was smooth. Delivery was prompt and well packaged.

What really stood out is their 60-day hassle-free returns policy — it gave me the confidence to order more than one mask to compare at home and return what I didn’t need. Their returns process is clearly explained and customer service is responsive.

This is how online dive gear shopping should be — straightforward, customer-focused, and trustworthy.

Charlie is amazing

Charlie is amazing! Not only did he share so many useful insights and showed his professionalism with the gears, but he’s actually care about his customers and can actually make recommendations tailored to their needs.

I live in Cambridge and generally it takes me about two hours to drive there. However, you know, the traffic in London can be a nightmare from now and then. ( or all the time) The day I travelled to the shop actually cost me 3 hours and I just missed the opening time.

When Charlie opened the gate he literally saved my day. I really appreciate and think he deserves a big raise for being voluntarily working overtime just to help a customer out. And that’s the reason I’d love to put my faith in a store like this.

All dive equipment should only be bought from here

some of my equipment that was left for servicing was mislaid and Steve replaced everything old for new immediately. Honest service cannot go unnoticed and so if you value customer service, then shop here for all things diving and just forget the rest.

Outstanding customer service

The customer service is outstanding. My order was taking longer than expected. The same day I contacted the dive store I got a response and full resolution from Tom. My order has now been shipped next day delivery. Always makes me feel safe ordering from Mikes.

The customer service is worth it!……

The customer service is worth it!… After a really helpful video consultation with Nish, I placed my order late and was worried my order wouldn’t make it in time for our trip (my bad planning!) but I phoned and got through to Tom in store who fixed the order and personally made sure it was sent out on time. Everything went to plan and the kit arrived safely and having completed our trip I’m very pleased with the advice I got!

Knowledgable staff, quality wetsuits.

Knowledgable staff- able to discuss my needs for best swim wetsuit. Adan was able to offer choice and when I decided on a size that wasn’t in the shop, he sourced one in the warehouse and got Dhl delivery for next day delivery.

What a pleasurable experience it was…

What a pleasurable experience it was buying masks for our forthcoming diving holiday from this great store. Charlie couldn’t have done more for us…he was friendly and welcoming and extremely knowledgable about the products. We ended up with perfectly fitting masks. We cannot recommend this store highly enough…thanks Charlie!

Lack of appreciation for the urgency of a next day delivery.

I ordered some stuff for next day delivery. Only part of the order arrived. General confusion as to why this was. If they'd told me they couldn't fulfil when i placed the order i could have gone elsewhere. Now instead of 36 hours to find a replacement part to go diving I have 6. Cheers guys, I won't be back, you need to be able to rely on people when it comes to diving.

To be fair, they offered a refund, but some sort of notification to let me know they were going to let me down would have been appreciated.

Buying new fins…excellent service

Went into store to buy some new fins for my next dive holiday. Your colleague who served me was great, really helpful - presented various options and took the time to understand my needs. Will definitely be buying here again

Sorry - don't remember the colleague's name. Thanks for your help.

First time visit and very impressed

First time visit and very impressed. Looking for a prescription dive mask which when googling was a minefield and Daniel really helped me. No overselling, clean, well intentioned and educated advice. Left soon after with a properly fitted mask (to my prescription), good price and super happy. Looking forward to my next dive with the right gear. Thanks especially to Daniel.
