Colorado Scuba Diving Academy

Striving For Better Diving! All PADI standards are met as required. Creative, customized and progressive diving programs are available.

Life long Educators, Trainers and Guides, Kent Rychel and Samuel Bachar created CSDA in order to provide true customer service, the very best educational opportunities, a flexible and tailored training schedule, and excellent value for students pursuing certification or additional skill training. Students are able to use cutting edge, well fitting gear in order to work on buoyancy skills, body pos

itioning and control, and various propulsion techniques while they rehearse basic safety skills. CSDA affords students a deeper understanding of the physics and physiology of scuba diving, as well as a very detailed look into the specialized and essential dive equipment. Classes can be taught onsite for students with the appropriate facilities. The main training pool is very large and 12 feet deep, and classrooms are relaxed and enjoyable with very informational and challenging presentations. Please check the website and call for info.

Nothing to do on a Wednesday evening! Go Scuba Challenge!

So fun to see so many divers engaged in keeping their skills fresh simply by getting back into the pool. A lot of our dive skills are perishable if we don't practice, practice, practice.

The reward? Regular dinners at East Moon Bistro after our pool play is done! Such a fab time last night.

Earl, cleanup in aisle 5! Let us introduce you to Mr. Bill! He's our resident service expert who loves to be challenged with questions and concerns regarding your equipment!

Part of being a responsible diver is to ensure your regulator set is serviced and in great condition, not only extending the lifespan of your equipment but also keeping you safe at depth.

Are you suspect that your Second stage or Alternate is not breathing properly? Bill will get it recalibrated and set for your next trip!

Bill also happens to be a scuba model, 😉. Here, he is featured in a Sharkskin non-neoprene suit, which is now his favorite go-to when diving in the Caribbean.

Curious? Give us a call or text!
