What Divers Say After Training

"I've found my diving confidence!"

“I have gone from Open Water Diver through Rescue Diver working with four different instructors at Dive & Glide Scuba. I have nothing but great things to say about everyone. All are 5-star.  They won me over on my very first visit. Stop in and ask about getting certified, or expanding your knowledge. They are there to listen and help you. ”

Dale H.Continuing Education Student

 

“I started with the Open Water Diver Course and have continued onto Divemaster. I was blown away by all the information you have to know. Dive & Glide Scuba has done a real good job of educating me on dangers in diving and how to be prepared if I need to be. I highly recommend them to anyone looking to try scuba. ”

Tom W.Continuing Education Student
