As divers, we at Bamboo Reef Dive Shop understand the importance of trying out equipment before purchasing it.⁠ Nothing is more frustrating that buying equipment that just doesn't work out. That's why we strive to carry the products we sell in our rental department, giving you the power to try before you buy! (We'll even discount the rental price from the full cost of the item.)

We have regulators, wetsuits, dive lights, and much more available for rent and for sale. We want all of our divers to feel confident in all of the gear they purchase. Visit us at 614 Lighthouse Avenue in Monterey or give us at call at 831-372-1685.
