Basic SCUBA Course
This course will cover such topics as equipment, diving physics and physiology (How do I keep my ears from hurting when I go deep?), dive planning, dive safety, avoiding the bends, marine life and environment (Should I be afraid of sharks?). In the pool we will teach you snorkeling skills, proper fin kicks, clearing water from your mask, snorkel or regulator, proper ascent and descent techniques, and buoyancy control. Then you will be ready to leave the pool and go to open water!
Basic SCUBA Certification Dives
After your course is complete you will be ready for your open-water certification dives. These dives are conducted locally, at Dutch Springs Lake, or can be done on a trip to the islands (See our travel section). Your open-water dives are done fully escorted and supervised by our staff. During these dives you will perform some of the same skills that you learned in the pool. You will experience slightly greater depths, put dive planning into practice, see some fish, and have a great time.

The Cost
The best part is that it can cost less than one month's payment on your car or a week worth of ski lift tickets. The cost varies slightly with each facility for whom we teach, so give us a call or check out a specific course for details. For planning purposes, you can figure on about $375 for the course, including the NAUI eLearning program, digital Certification Card and a plastic Certification Card. Divers may upgrade to the Premier eLearning program, which includes a logbook, dive tables, and a hardcopy of the book, for an additional $50.
If you choose to do your certification dives with us, the fee is $295.00. This includes all the equipment that you need and a free surface marker buoy ($35 value).
