Our Certification Adventures:  We are fully transparent and do not have hidden fees or gimmicks.  Our certification prices are per person and all inclusive, including photos and videos. We practice the highest safety standards and limit each class in size, and every certification is taught directly by veteran NAUI Instructor, SCUBA Steve! All of our dives only take place at the best dive sites in Florida.  Each course can be broken into 4 components: Self study, classroom session(s) (virtual), confined water dives (pool or pool like environment), and open water dives. All of the gear we provide is less than a year old, is in excellent condition, and provides for an extremely comfortable dive. We also provide steel tanks, while most companies provide the lesser cost aluminum tanks. Steel provides a better diving experience as it helps with your buoyancy control.

Included are: assists, transports, surface rescues and rescues from depth involving both boat- and shore-based skin and scuba divers. Graduates are considered competent to perform assists and rescues in open water provided the diving site and diving situations approximate those of the course, and may use this certification to meet the prerequisite for the NAUI Training Assistant specialty course, NAUI leadership courses and NAUI Instructor course.  Graduates also earn certification in both CPR and First Aid.

Enriched Air (AKA Nitrox)  

This is the most commonly used tank fill for SCUBA diving.  Enriched air offers many benefits such as, extended bottom time and shorter surface intervals.  This means more time underwater and less time on the boat when you go SCUBA diving.  During this course, you will learn the additional planning protocols involved to use this air mix.  Then we will complete two fun dives at a local cavern!
