Dive Training NEWS

For the past month, eight divers have coming to class every Tuesday and Thursday evening, and diving every Sunday to earn the title "NAUI Master Scuba Diver."  It was a challenging course, and we would like to congratulate our newest Master Divers!  Check the website for updates, and a class picture! 

This past weekend was great in Ft. Lauderdale!  We got our last chance to clean up on lobster (and didn't do too bad either), did an amazing beach dive, and had flat seas with a nice northern current for some great drift dives!  Get your gear ready, and serviced before summer starts because its going to be a great year to dive!
