Had an absolutely fantastic time with Rob, Margot and the Kraken team! Under the top tier instruction of Rob, I completed my Intro To Tech, Wreck and Deep diving courses. The diving itself was incredible and can't be recommend highly enough. I will most certainly be heading back to Orkney and the Kraken team to do it all again! 5 stars all round!

Margot took me out to get my drysuit qualification at the blockships then arranged a day for me to dive Scapa Flow. Dived with them both times. Overall I had an incredible experience, the team were all so lovely, a real friendly bunch. They were also incredibly professional and knew their stuff, it had been a good few years since i'd dived and they helped to build my confidance back up in a safe, controlled manner. I felt they went out of their way to arrange the scapa flow dive. Overall a very enjoyable experience.

Had a really great time diving Scapa Flow! I did my advanced open water and nitrox course with them. Margot was an excellent instructor and the dives were absolutely stunning - best dives I've ever done. The equipment was really high quality. Can't recommend diving at the Orkneys, with Kraken Diving, enough!

I had a wonderful time shore diving with Margot and Rob. It was a smooth and stress-free experience with safety built into the process as a key component. They are knowledgeable about the area and very friendly. I highly recommend booking your diving with them :)

The BEST EXPERIENCE! We were with Rob, Margot and team for 5 days. 1 snorkel excursion, 2 shore dives, and 2 boat dives. This was the fist time ocean diving for us. Rob and Margot progressed the dives to work with our comfort zone and improve skill for each dive. The briefing and history prior to the dives was outstanding. Every step was handled with the utmost respect to safety and professionalism. The dive locations were amazing! WWI and WWII block ships and scuttled ships and wonderful sealife. Rob and Margot at Kraken are who you want to use for guided dives, snorkeling, or learning to scuba dive. They are absolutely top notch!

Had a fantastic time and experience with Rob and Margo at Kraken Diving. They are very knowledgeable about the wrecks and the area. There are always opportunities to see different things. A HUGE thank you and I definitely return for more dives.

Really had a great experience, felt like I was diving with friends and family, they went out of their way to make sure I had a great experience and above and beyond to work with me and my schedule. I can't say enough good about this group, one for my best experiences doing a tour.

If your planning on going up to Scapa Flow these are the guys to dive with.Really friendly family business, their only goal is your enjoyment. Regular communication to ensure we were aware of any change to timings, meeting places etc.They run the dives around what site you want to go to, not what they want to do. This ensures a bespoke trip as there were certain ships we wanted to see.This service carry’s on under the water, after an excellent pre brief with 3d pictures of the wrecks they guide you to all the fun stuff like guns etc. we saw the biggest lobster ever on one of the wrecks!!We have dived all over the world and these guys are some of the best we have been withRecommend 100%!!!!!!

Wonderful time with Kracken, did my 5th and 6th dives here in Orkney, and the coaching and scenery at the Churchill barriers were great. Can’t wait to return with my advanced and dry suit cert to dive the WWI German ships in scapa flow!
