Congratulations to this group of junior open water divers! We are a couple weeks behind on posting but we wanted everyone to finish up anything pending and congratulate the whole group! This group was so much fun to work with and they all had a blast checking out the wildlife along the way! 😃

Our divemaster candidate, Allen was hard at work during this course learning the ins and outs of working with younger divers and he did excellent!💪

Copied from one of our Red Sea live aboard divers. This is a HUGE DEAL on an amazing all inclusive trip!

Unfortunately, I can’t make my upcoming Red Sea liveaboard trip anymore, so I’m trying to resell TWO spots for 31 Aug 2026 - 7 Sep 2026. This was a trip I really didn’t want to miss, especially with the opportunity to dive the Thistlegorm and spend a week diving the Red Sea with.

I’m willing to sell both of my spots for $1,500 (not each, 1500$ total) may even be willing to trade something for them. If anyone is interested or wants more information, send me a message or follow the link to the trip website.

Heat injury is one of the leading causes of injury in scuba diving and it almost always occurs at the surface! We take special precautions to protect our students this time of year and Instructor Christian’s personal favorite precaution is in water briefings! Everything is better in the water and sometimes that includes briefings and debriefings!😃

We had a great tim taking Brian out for a discover scuba program today at the quarry! He is planning to become an underwater welder and wanted to give scuba a try to make sure he likes it. It’s safe to say that he is a natural and judging by his smile he has chosen a great career for himself!😃

Three new open water divers are loading! We can’t wait to issue their underwater passports tomorrow after their final check out dives are complete!😃
