Happy Clients

Great experience with a knowledgeable instructor! Started off with easy to understand basics and worked our way up until we could comfortably scuba on our own. Would definitely recommend to anyone looking to get their scuba license and have a good time doing it!

G. Buchanan

Without a doubt one of the best experiences I’ve ever had doing training of any kind. Always enthusiastic about everything, and willing to dive whenever I was available. If you’re looking for an instructor that truly cares about your dive experience, your safety and the safety of the people you’re going to be diving with on your own in the future, Ben is without a doubt the go-to guy. Wouldn’t go to anyone else if I choose to advance my training.

J. MathisStudent

One of the best experiences I've had was learning to SCUBA dive and without this instructor it wouldn't have been the same. Great flexibility in schedule, friendly and professional atmosphere, and an introduction to a great dive family are just a few of the many great things I have experienced through this instructor.

If you want someone who will go out of their way to make sure you are a well trained, competent, and knowledgeable diver, then this fine gentleman is who you want as your scuba instructor. He ensures you understand and comprehend all teaching points before going to the next topic and is more than welcome to discuss any concern or misunderstanding with you. You will not be disappointed.
