They teach everything about scuba diving including how to react when things go wrong. Most scuba certification class have a similar cost but not all include the rental of equipment in the class cost.

Comparing their Discovery class with one I took at another scuba shop, this was hands down the best training I've seen.

Even though I had a bunch of questions, they were awesome about answering every one and made me feel welcome to join the dive even though I had limited experience and didn't know anyone. I stopped by Madison Scuba to rent my equipment and they were super helpful and again, I gained more confidence about the upcoming dive weekend. The dive weekend was great. Although I was a newbie, they never made me feel like it. They were always very inclusive, patient, and understanding. Had I known what I do now, I would have become certified with them instead to receive way better training plus they are $200 cheaper than what I paid on vacation. I highly recommend the instructors at Madison Scuba!

We originally started coming here because my kids were a little small for their age and didn't have the muscle or fat mass to keep them warm in normal pools. The warm pool at Diventures has been great for them, allowing them to gain confidence in their swimming abilities, independence in the water, and progressive, visible advancement of their skills! I think they might be better swimmers than Mom and Dad at this point :) We recently went to Mexico and they swam in the ocean many times without me having to worry literally every second that they were going to drown - which made it more enjoyable for everyone! I can't recommend them highly enough!
