Hi everyone!

Thanks for coming to our annual gear sale! We have a decent amount of stock left over (new & used!) and won't be putting it away until the end of the day on Friday so if you're looking for some last-minute savings on regulators, BCDs, SMBs, suits, and more, this week is your chance!

We have our class schedule for Learn to Dive and Advanced Diver posted to our website. You can sign up online or get in touch with us to learn more. We are still offering personal Nitrox and Drysuit classes so definitely have a look at those if you're interested - we've made it super easy to get certified while accommodating your schedule.

Another round of local evening dives are scheduled for this summer and are still FREE to attend. More information to come soon about Geocaching Round 2 as well as other summer events we have planned.

Now we just need the bay to warm up so we can all get to diving! See you underwater 🤿🫧

Salt Pier is one of the most atmospheric dive sites in Bonaire and a personal favorite of mine. Here's some additional footage Bob captured under the loading area.

Turtle grazing near the shore in Bonaire. Just a little guy! Their ability to stabilize themselves against the turbulent ocean water is interesting to observe.

Hello everyone! 🐠

Apologies for the radio silence - we've been having some issues with our Facebook account.

We are back from Bonaire! The diving was excellent and from the feedback we received, it seems like everyone had a great time. We're already planning future trips abroad so please let us know where you'd like to go!

We'll be uploading some video clips from the Bonaire trip next week so stay tuned for that. News about future travel plans will be here on Facebook and also on our website.

It's almost time for our annual gear sale and this year it's going to be bigger than ever! I promise that's not just marketing speak, we're quite literally selling more used AND new gear than ever before at discounted prices. This year's sale will be on Saturday, May 2nd! More details to come soon.
