My husband and I had previously been diving but not for a decade and needed to refresh our skills…read more Our 13 and 14 year olds wanted to become certified to do open water dives on an upcoming vacation. Customer focused: Joe and Dianne were very accommodating to work around all of our schedules for our particular needs. They invested a lot of time with the kids, were patient, gave them great learning tasks and were very positive. Both kids loved them. Joe is an excellent instructor. Flexible: When I found out that I didn't have quite the same certification as I thought, they accommodated us with a very tight schedule graciously so I could get everything in and dive with the rest of the family on the trip. Expertise: As others have reviewed, the merchandise may be more expensive than online, but if you spend an hour with someone knowledgeable getting the right gear, should that expertise be free and the items sold at cost? If you want cheap and to figure it out yourself, go to Amazon. If you want someone who is knowledgeable and will help you find just the right thing and make sure you are prepared, support this local business. I wish I had known about it sooner!

These are the guys to go to for anything scuba. I did my open water and advanced with them, and was…read morevery pleased with the quality of the training. They were very understanding of my mother's concerns (she's scared of drowning) and they invited her after I finished my pool training to come and watch me in the pool to show her that it was safe, and I was trained. I drove home from college to buy gear here, because I trust them (their prices are essentially the same as online and they show you how to maintain the gear and get everything connected properly). I have never felt that I was pressured to buy anything, or the most expensive option when I expressed interest in buying gear. They listen to your needs, what you want, and make a recommendation based on that. Thanks ACR, Alex
