Dry Suit Diver

The Drysuit Diver course teaches you how to stay warm, comfortable, and in control when diving in cold water. You’ll learn proper drysuit selection and fit, inflation and exhaust valve use, buoyancy management with both your BCD and suit, emergency procedures, and how to prevent and handle common issues like feet-first ascents or air migration. Through confined practice and at least two open water dives, you’ll develop precise buoyancy control and confidence in cooler environments—extending your dive season and opening access to quarries, lakes, and cold-water destinations year-round.

Choose Your Training Like Your Life Depends On It

Not all Scuba Training is equal

And we are a bit different.....

Shopping online for a scuba class? Just so you know the staff at the shop would love to meet you, I know understanding clicking around in your pajamas is easier but just know if you have any questions, we are here to help! If there was one thing I could explain, it's that when choosing a scuba program you need to be very aware of what you are signing up for. Instructor experience, program structure, and real time commitment matter more than fishy promises.
