    I have so many great things to say about this place, where to start? My dive buddy and I decided to get our Scuba Certification and Nitrox training here. We had an amazing group of supportive teachers for this experience. Tom boasts over 30 years of diving and 15 of teaching and it shows! So many great stories along with your classes. Sug was the divemaster assisting and was great at maintaining a positive training environment. I had a lot of anxiety and fear going in but by the end of the first class I am sad it is over already! Can't wait to get back in the water.

    I am so thankful I decided to use Scuba Adventures Plano for my Open Water Certification. My instructor, Tom, was incredibly knowledgeable and patient. Shug, was our divemaster and did an amazing job keeping our spirits high. Those 2 made learning how to breathe underwater a breeze. While doing our checkout dives there was another class doing their checkouts as well. Barry, was the dive master for the other class and also the guy who helped us buy gear many months early. It was reassuring seeing the same faces. Leora was the instructor for the other class and gave me an excellent tip in passing to help with my mask fogging problem (keep a lil bit of water in your mask and swish it around when you get foggy). 10/10 would dive again.

    My niece Addison and I decided to get open water and Nitrox certified through Scuba Adventures in Plano. In the past, I would get resort certified while on vacation, but I'm tired of wasting nearly a day going through this process, so I decided to get certified, so I didn't have to waste more of my future vacation time. When we signed up, Addison and I were fitted for equipment, and everybody at Scuba Adventures was very nice and patient with us. We were lucky to have David Blasingame and Bonnie Sanford. They were very organized and patient with everybody and made sure everybody in our class understood and could perform each skill before moving to the next skill. They were both very knowledgeable, and they made the class super fun! In previous dives (being resort certified), I was not adequately taught how to equalize my ears. I was also not taught how to be neutrally buoyant, so I was constantly flailing in the water and had no control. I feel comfortable descending at the same speed as my dive buddy and fellow divers, and I'm confident as an open water certified scuba diver. We did our open water dive at Scuba Ranch and met other instructors from Scuba Adventures who were all very knowledgeable. I highly recommend Scuba Adventures, and hopefully, you'll be lucky to get David and Bonnie as your Dive instructors too.

    My youngest son recently earned his Open Water certification through Scuba Adventures. He’s a minor, so I went along as an observer for his open water checkout at The Scuba Ranch. I’ve been certified for 30+ years and my oldest certified several years before Scuba Adventures existed, so up until that point, I’d had no real exposure to the folks there. I have to say, choosing them was the best decision I could have made. The team of Brent, Barry and Shug was truly the Dream Team of diving instruction. Throughout the process, they took full advantage of every moment as a teaching opportunity with a focus on safety and practical, applicable knowledge. Everyone on the team brought something to the table that would benefit the students. Their combined knowledge and experience added value to the learning process that far exceeded the modest cost. Some might be concerned that all this “professional knowledge transfer” would be boring, but you can set your concerns aside. Diving is all about having fun, and these guys are experts at that as well. Between dives, we had a great time at the pavilion sharing stories, discussing travel and enjoying excellent snacks, including a fantastic breakfast taco meal on our second morning. Even during breaks, though, the instructors were always looking for ways to keep the students focused and learning. At one point during the weekend, Barry mentioned to me that, during his travels, he had often witnessed how poorly trained many beginners were. His goal was to have the best trained, most competent beginners on any dive boat. I can say without reservation that he and the team accomplished that goal, at least with my son. We recently returned from a trip to Roatan, and the dive masters there commented repeatedly that they couldn’t believe it was my son’s first blue-water diving experience. He was fully prepared before the dives and handled himself extremely well during and after. His buoyancy control and overall demeanor was like that of a much more experienced diver and clearly reflected the quality of the instruction he received from Scuba Adventures. If you are looking for the best, look no further. I highly recommend Scuba Adventures.

    The divers at Scuba Adventures at Plano were professional, friendly and patient. They were fantastic with my 13 year old son, who was taking scuba lessons for the first time, and with me during my scuba refresher. We had an exceptional experience.

    My wife and I just received our Open Water Scuba certification from Scuba Adventures Plano. Their instructors are absolutely top notch. They love what they do and take pride in making sure they thoroughly teach their students. The shop was very helpful with assisting newbies like us make equipment purchases that were the best fit and most appropriate for our skill set. We also really appreciated their thorough communication and availability for questions. We're looking forward to going on one of their scuba trips with them some time in the future. If they are run as well as their classes or shop, it will be top notch. We highly recommend them!

    I recently completed my Nitrox certification with this shop. The professionalism and expertise of the staff are truly commendable. Sarah made the registration process a breeze with her amazing assistance, and Barry, my instructor, deserves a shout-out for his exceptional patience and thoroughness in covering the training material. Huge thanks to the entire team for providing such an amazing and pleasant learning experience. I can not wait to complete the Rescue Diver certification with them soon—thank you guys!!!

    The wife and myself had decided to get our open water certification, after looking into everything we decided we needed to get our personal gear. ( location we are doing class said they would supply gear). After talking with Autumn and Abigail, we were certain we made the correct choice in dive shops. We changed our mind some many times on items, they even let us try out our gear in the pool. After many hours we finally decided on what we liked the best. Everyone was so unbelievably helpful. Explained what each piece should feel like and fit. Very grateful for all the help and professionalism. The only regret we have is that we didn’t do our class and certification with them. The best part is we are just starting, so in the future we will definitely be doing classes with them. Thank you so much again.
