Don't Miss Out - Only a few spots left!
Fall Bash - St. Lucia
Our Annual Fall Bash is our biggest and most inclusive trip of the year! With round-trip airfare, 7 nights accommodation, 12 scheduled dives with additional diving available, a guided colonial tour, and all meals included, you can’t find a better deal on a week of diving. Plus, you won’t want to miss our annual costume contest and karaoke party.
 
Saint Lucia is one of the most picturesque islands in the Eastern Caribbean, boasting a pair of dramatically tapered mountains, the Pitons, on its west coast. Its coast is home to volcanic beaches, beautiful reef diving sites and fishing villages. Trails in the interior rainforest lead to jaw dropping waterfalls. You will find total relaxation and beauty coupled with diving, hiking and jungle biking adventures. Come join us for a week of fun, relaxation, great food and memorable diving.

Are Your Fins "Good Enough"?
SCUBA Diving equipment gets updated and improved all the time! GoPro comes out with new models every year. Computers get software updates and release new models with ever-clearer displays. Even wetsuits get updated with new, more insulated fabrics. With so much new technology being injected into the sport of SCUBA, sometimes the basic equipment gets overlooked.
 
Many people are surprised to hear that fins have undergone a transformation of their own over the past 20 years. Not only are they lighter to pack in your luggage and gentler on knees and hips, but they actually make kicking more efficient.
 
The fundamental improvement in new fins is making them lighter. The plastic and other materials are less dense. The shape of fins has changed as well. Companies have poured research into finding the key “power zones” on fins and cutting away the parts that add weight without return.
Tip of the Month
Jet lag can ruin a vacation by making you feel tired and fatigued (or wide awake at 2am) when you’re trying to enjoy your getaway. Our top 3 jet lag tips are
  1. Take a walk or spend some time outside in the sun as soon as you arrive at your destination.
  2. Over the counter medications can help you get a good night sleep when you first arrive.
  3. Avoid napping! It messes up your sleep schedule and eats into the adventure you traveled halfway around the globe for. 
What's the Best Way for YOU to Review?

Get over those first dive jitters before you get to your dive destination. All divers should jump in the water to refresh and review the skills from the Open Water certification prior to their trip.
 
POOL NIGHT~ Once a month, we open our pool for divers to come in after hours and splash around. This is a self guided review (there won't be an instructor on duty) but gives you a chance to set up your gear, blow bubbles, and keep things fresh between trips. If you can't make it to Pool Night, you can call us to book a Pool Workout whenever our pool is available.

The pool will be available from 6 - 9pm on the following nights:

  • March 15
  • April 30
  • May 15
  • June 18
