During your classroom session your instructor will help you with picking out these items. Will I need my own Air Delivery System, Buoyancy System, and Dive Computer, or can I rent? You will not need these items to take the course. We supply these three systems during your class. When you are ready to purchase your Air Delivery, Buoyancy, and Computer Systems, we have these to meet most any budget. We even offer financing. Be sure to ask us about financing. We will be glad to assist you by customizing these systems tailored for you. We are also Certified Lab Technicians for the diving systems we sell. So, we can take care of all services and repairs that you may need. Price does not include your Snorkeling System, and Exposure System for the Class.

Where will I do my Training Dives?
We will do your Pool Training Dives at one of our Local YMCAs. Your Open Water Training dives here in the Lake are included in the price above. We also have many other options and locations.


After my training, where can I go dive?
We have a trip somewhere every month. They may be to another Lake, Quarry, or Ocean. We also do several diving trips a year to the Caribbean. There are many opportunities to dive. We also offer discounts on some of our trips to members of the “Regulators Dive Club”. You can read more about the Dive Club on our webpage. Please check us out on Facebook and YouTube for videos of past travel.


What are the age requirements?
For a full certification you must be at least 10 years old.


How long does the certification last?
Once certified, you are certified for life. That been said, it is recommended that if you haven’t made a dive in more than two years that you take a refresher course.


Do I have to be a great swimmer?
No. But there is a need to be able to sustain yourself in the water if needed. An untimed swim test and water tread is required. You don’t have to be an Olympic swimmer for this.
