PADI Dive Center

Learn to dive.

Whether it is your first breath underwater or your next rating, we teach small and we teach properly. Instruction available in English and Spanish.

Courses we run

Course schedules and pricing change through the season, so call the shop and we will tell you what is running and what fits you.

Open Water Diver

The entry level certification. Pool sessions, classroom or eLearning, then open water dives. Leaves you certified to dive worldwide.

Advanced and specialty

Build on the basics: deep, navigation, wreck, night and more. Pick the specialties that match the diving you actually want to do.

Nitrox and technical

Enriched air and mixed gas training from the shop that brought Nitrox, Trimix and Argon to New York City first.

Refresher

Certified but out of the water a few years? A short refresher gets your skills and your confidence back before a trip.

Private instruction

One on one or small group, scheduled around you. Good if you are nervous, short on time, or want to move fast.

PADI eLearning

If your schedule will not sit still, PADI's online programs let you start immediately and work at your own pace. You do the knowledge development portion online by watching, listening, reading and working through an interactive program, then come to us for the water.

Learn anytime, anywhere you have a connection, then do the part that actually matters in the pool and the ocean with an instructor.
