Scuba John's Dive Shop

Dive shop

👍👍 We have been patrons of Scuba John’s Dive Shop since 2014. You could not ask for a better instructor both in the classroom and in the water. John is a wealth of knowledge in all things related to Scuba Diving. My wife and I and both of our daughters have all been trained by Scuba John’s Dive Shop. W...

Bubbles-or-Not

Dive shop

👍👍 Fantastic dive shop and staff. Tara walked my son and I through EFR and Emergency Oxygen Provider. She also took my son through Rescue Diver which, with his other certs allowed him to get Master Scuba Diver. I can't say enough good things about her and this dive shop. Good people!

Columbia Scuba

👍👍 My family and I were looking for a dive shop that cared about the diver and not just the moment of the sale or training.

Mountains to Seas Scuba

SCUBA instructor

😠 The instructor was very arrogant and impatient. Getting OW was difficult at a boat ramp with wind and waves, and muddy water. The class should have been postponed. Instead of taking time to help me with proper buoyancy, he added excess weight- almost 20#’s- and I never even went underwater! I wait...

By The Shore SCUBA Instruction LLC

SCUBA instructor

👍👍 My 12 year old son and I did a discovery class and OW certification during COVID. There was only one pool in the area available so scheduling with the pool was challenging. Ken and Kevin were very responsive and gave a lot of special attention to my son to ensure we could both learn the skills bein...
