**Announcement**
After 15 unforgettable years serving our local dive community, we’re transitioning away from our retail storefront to focus on what we love most — private instruction, advanced training, and exploration.
John will continue traveling and teaching technical & CCR diving, and will be serving as Captain of a private research vessel exploring and identifying shipwrecks along the East Coast and beyond.
Amanda has joined Scuba Diving International (SDI), helping shape diver education on a global scale. In her new role, she’ll continue supporting dive professionals and training facilities worldwide, carrying her passion and experience from our shop to the global diving community
As we close the retail chapter, we’re going to celebrate the right way: November 22nd and 23rd from 11am - 6pm, we’ll be running a major in-store clearance sale with huge discounts on all in-stock items — gear, rental equipment including tanks, accessories, and more.
We can’t thank you enough for supporting our small, family-run dive shop all these years. Your loyalty made it possible for us to live this life together — doing what we love, with the people we love. ❤️
