"The best way to learn to dive is by diving"

We specialize in small groups and private lessons. So you won't find any large groups or over crowded class rooms here. We believe in 3 things; providing personal attention, tailoring the class to your individual learning needs, and providing you with the best possible diving education you can receive.

We receive a lot of flack from other instructors and dive centers for what we do. But guess what, we don't care. They say were nuts for investing in quality expensive gear and that's no way to make money, tough for them because that is what we believe in.

Other shops think were nuts for our higher standards, they say there's no way you can expect introductory students to accomplish that. That's our standard and were sticking to it. If your looking for your average easy course, or looking to purchase a stack of 'collector cards' then we're not the shop for you. We don't sell cards, we sell knowledge so if you want the best possible education you can receive and don't mind spending more time in the water, working harder, and doing skills until they are second nature then we are the shop for you.

In 2002 our head instructor and founder Chris Davis received his NAUI Scuba Diver certification in Okinawa Japan from Reef Encounters Dive Shop. Upon his first descent under the surface, he immediately fell in love with the sport. Following his passion for teaching he continued on his diving education to receive his Instructors Certification in 2006.

Chris also holds numerous specialty and technical diving certifications to include; Advanced EANX, Decompression Procedures, and Helitrox.

We have dove everything from shallow reefs to deep wrecks and look forward to answering your diving questions and leading you into the fascinating underwater world.
