    Have you ever wanted to learn how to SCUBA dive and join in the excitement of breathing underwater, exploring cool reefs, seeing colorful fish, or checking-out a sunken ship?

      Here is your chance to become a a fully certified SCUBA Diver!

     Join me, John Beck, your instructor, in one of two classes being offered this semester to allow you to become a PADI Open Water Diver.

PADI Open Water Diver 

Sweet Briar College has combined with Dive Connections to provide two classes this semester for becoming a PADI Open Water Diver.  

One class will do the open water training at Lake Rawlings, the clearest, fresh-water diving in the area!  The second class will travel to the U.S. Virgin Islands and finish their training on beautiful St. Thomas with the great folks at Blue Island Divers!  Keep your eye on this web site for further information regarding class times, courses offered, and dive trips!

We have teamed-up with Dive Connections, located in Charlottesville, to bring you the best in gear, gear rental, and services! Cruise this site for more information.

Advanced and Specialty Diver Training

Are you already certified and want to advance your training?

We also offer PADI advanced open water, rescue diver,  and divemaster courses, as well as nitrox,  wreck, boat, underwater naturalist specialties and DAN O2 as well.
