We were so impressed with our scuba cert program through SpringAdventures!…read more Honestly, when we hit the targeted ads, we were a little dubious because of some of the web design choices, and how low the prices were. SO GLAD we took a chance. It's a one-man operation, and he's incredible. His prices are all in, and he really does knock it out in just 2 days with great flexible local dives near the High Springs area. If you have a special request, just call him - he was able to add our NitrOx cert as well on the fly. I was blown away watching this man transition from charismatic comedy, making learning fun but still hitting all the key points, right into suddenly supportive teacher mode when we were in the practical portions and he was helping a student who was struggling, using a disarming compassionate demeanor. At least in our session, class sizes were very small, and he not only equipped us mentally for our scuba expeditions, but he gave us incredible insight and recommendations beyond the certification on what kind of gear to look for, good habits, inside tips for the industry. Just 11/10. He also does have gear available for sale, customized to the diver, which is I assume how he keeps his prices so low, but he wasn't pushy at all and advised us for what we NEEDED not what he sold. I was actively trying to buy gear from him, and he advised me that I might need something special and that also some other websites unrelated to him are having a pretty good sale right now so he chose our equipment and savings over his own revenue. Just couldn't be more impressed. (Also, if you come down here for just the class from out of town, I highly recommend the "getaway" tiny home cabins nearby for lodging. They're clean, super cheap, nice close by, and easy. Including two nights lodging, you could get your scuba cert here for like a thousand or $1,200 cheaper than you can in most major cities.

Doug the instructor guided and helped my 14 year old son get his open water certification after my son discovered scuba diving while we were on vacation in Cozumel and dove there for the first time. Caleb said his instruction was thorough and smooth and he enjoyed the entire process of classroom and pool dives. Doug and Dive Educators helped us complete the certification by allowing my son to do his 4 open water dives while on vacation in Aruba which was very convenient for our needs. We are excited because now my son can dive with me whenever we travel and plan on doing the scuba experience at Georgia aquarium. Much thanks to Doug and Dive Educators for helping my son achieve Open Water certification! 5 solid Stars and two thumbs up!

I was super nervous starting out, but he was patient, never rushed anything, and even took the time to show extra tips that helped a lot once I got out of the pool. It felt more like learning from a friend than a strict instructor. I did my OW and AOW dives with Howard, and he was great as well. During my OW weekend, I was still struggling a bit with buoyancy, and he didn't have to, but he even did an extra dive with me to work on PPB just so I could feel more confident. My first time in the ocean was with him too, and he always took the time to teach beyond the bare minimum. Shoutout to Stefan and James, who were also on some of my dives -- super helpful with little tips along the way. I started off nervous about diving and ended up with a new hobby and some new dive buddies. Highly recommend Dive Educators -- they genuinely care.

I have taken multiple training courses from a number of shops/instructors. Dive Georgia is among…read morethe best I have encountered. First, if you are shopping by price, find another sport. Dive Georgia is not unusually expensive -pretty typical - but you want to avoid shops that have found a way to make the product cheaper. I would use two words to describe the training experiences I have had through Dive Georgia: Challenging and Supportive. There are plenty of dive shops who simply want to get you through the course so they can take your money. They don't really care how much you learn along the way. That is not Dive Georgia. They seem to be very conscientious about the fact that they are training you for a sport that needs a certain level of proficiency for you to be safe and for you to enjoy yourself. More than any dive shop I have ever gone diving with, they are committed to making sure you receive that level of training. I recently completed the NAUI Master Diver with them. It was challenging, fun, and a wonderful learning experience. Are they perfect? No, but their shortcomings are not really related to the training. My chief complaint is about pre-class communication, which is sometimes a little last minute, and sometimes assuming you know things about needed equipment that you don't know. I spoke to someone on the phone and signed up for a class. I wasn't told there were any prerequisites, then was called and asked to send in proof of my needed prerequisite. So, I had to quickly sign up for a class, to meet the requirements. I wish this had been mentioned up front - but, in the scheme of things, pretty minor. I have had good interactions with everyone, but if you are looking for a great first contact point, ask for Emily. She is super friendly, helpful, and knowledgeable!

Horrible customer service. I signed my children up for the bubbles class. AFTER I paid ($260) they…read moremade me fill out a waiver and in the waiver my children had asthma and one a heart murmur. Because of this we had to get approved by a doctor. They gave my children a cheap coloring book, one tattoo and a cheap towel. We went to the doctor and she would not sign off on them doing this bc course. I called to let them know and receive a refund. I knew we had to eat the cost of the cheap towel, they charged us $80! For the two cheap towels. I would not recommend this place if business.

Jerry and VJ, the owners of Fanta-Sea Divers, have been wonderful guides to the world of diving. I…read morecalled and talked to Jerry about getting my open water diver certification and he patiently walked me through the process. Not only was he polite and helpful, but there were no hidden costs, unlike other dive shops I spoke to previously. Throughout my certification process Jerry and VJ were exceptionally willing to accommodate my hectic schedule, they were thorough teachers making sure I not only knew the answers to their questions but also why, and I always felt safe in the water with them. Once it came time to get my basic gear, Jerry and VJ both went out of their way to let me try out some of their gear to make sure I got what I wanted. They even special ordered my gear in my preferred color. Besides being professional and helpful, Jerry and VJ are also very personable, fun, and have great dive stories! They made my dive experience a lot of fun. I will certainly continue on to my advanced certification with them as well as go to them for any future gear purchases or advice. I am so glad I decided to get certified with a smaller dive shop. I got a lot of 1 on 1 instruction because there was only 1 other person in my class. You won't get that at one of the larger dive shops in the area. Dive Fanata-Sea!
