Your local dive store is the most convenient place for service but not all brands. Equipment purchased elsewhere may not carry a warranty and will cost more for service.

Your local dive store provides you with personal service, education, and travel knowledge. Your support allows for continued service and growth.

Weekend trips are the least expensive. Ocean trips vary. The quality of accommodations, including meals and transportation, distance and remoteness of destination, all contribute to the cost.\u00a0 The Far Pacific is a better option for more marine life and healthier reefs. John has traveled the Pacific extensively and will continue to lead groups to these destinations. See ocean trips.<\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

If you are a frequent traveler or visit remote locations (which we offer), dive insurance often gives you some travel coverage and gives you a peace of mind that extra medical or transportation cost are all covered. DAN provides that coverage.\u00a0\u00a0We are covered through DAN both for travel and for our instructor insurance: Divers Alert Network<\/a>\u00a0 Please note in application that we are your local dive store.
