With Covid 19 really taking a toll on face to face interaction, the Dive Academy has just received word from its training agency that the Advanced Open Water Course has now been activated on-line!!! This is great news for anyone looking to do the theory portion of the course on line before we hit the water in August. If anyone is interested now is the chance to get the theory portion out of the way so we can hit the water right away. This course has also been discounted, do to this pandemic!!! Other online courses include, Open Water Diver, Nitrox Diver and Night Diver.

Also a big congrats to our 2 new Divemasters Dave and Bernard !!! Great work guys, looking forward to having you both on the team :)
