Dolphin Dive Center (Visit this link)

Most people learn to dive through their local professional dive center. Dolphin Dive Center offers diving instruction, equipment sales, rentals, and servicing. We can also assist you with all of your dive travel plans.

Is It Safe? Thanks to international certification agencies and standards, scuba diving is among the safest of recreational activities. All students must also receive a release from a physician prior to any diving. The following forms will help you and your doctor determine if SCUBA diving is for you.

How Much Does It Cost? The cost of learning to dive can be broken down into three parts: Instruction, equipment purchase and travel.

When learning from the professionals at Dolphin Dive Center, the class and pool portion of the open water training is $260. Also plan on spending between $150 and $300 to purchase essential equipment - like mask, fins, snorkel and booties. Once you complete the class and pool sessions, you need four open water dives to become fully certified. These can be done over a weekend. Dolphin Dive Center offers a trip to freshwater springs in Florida on the third weekend of every month. Learning to dive is likely to cost more if you plan on traveling to a tropical resort to complete your course. Visit our Upcoming Trips page for details on trips in the near future.
