Q:How old do I have to be to get my scuba certification?
A:We love to teach kids to scuba dive! 10 and 11 year olds can get a junior certification but must enroll in a semi-private class, not a regularly scheduled group class.12-15 year olds can get a junior certification in any of our regularly scheduled classes.

Q:I know there is a minimum age; is there a maximum age?
A:Absolutely not! We train senior divers all the time.

Q:What kind of shape do I have to be in to learn to scuba dive?
A:You need to be generally healthy and reasonably fit to scuba dive. We will have you complete a medical history form prior to any pool work and may require you to consult a physician based on your history.Medical Form to be completed

Q:Can I take scuba classes if I don't know how to swim?
A:Not really. You will have to pass a swimming comfort evaluation which entails a 200 yard untimed swim using any swimming stroke or a 30 yard swim using mask, fins, and snorkel and you will need to be able to tread water for ten minutes.

Q:What if I have to miss a pool/classroom session?
A:We really must insist on perfect attendance, but we understand that things happen and will try to accommodate you. Extra fees will apply if you miss a class/pool session and need to schedule a make-up.

Q:What equipment do I need?
A:We ask that you provide your own mask, fins, snorkel, and boots. We have special student packages set-up and you do qualify for student discounts once you put a deposit on a scuba class. Of course you will also need a bathing suit and towel for the pool sessions and pencil/pen for the classroom.
