Atlantis Scuba LLC - let's go diving!!!

 

personalized scuba instruction, equipment and travel

if you're too young to dive, it's never too early to learn to snorkel. Quality gear and expert fitting makes it easy!
This is one of our students finishing in Cozumel at the El Presidente. She was a lot of fun but has since moved out East. Cristina where are you??? No modeling release either; hope she doesn't mind...

Training & Education


We've been training divers since 1996!  Ask your friends and neighbors; you'll be surprised by how many divers are out there.  Odds are we trained some of them and our reputation should speak for itself! 

We train on-line and review on-site for academics, and at the Carroll Aquatic Center and Keller Natatorium (huge pools) for the "confined water" portion of the course.  For the "open water" portion, we're not married to a single locale....we do what is best for our students!  Depending on the time of year, this could be Clear Springs Scuba Park, Athens Scuba Park, Cozumel or Possum Kingdom.



We also teach privately at your home and your pool on your schedule!  Just break out your planner and give us a call

SCHEDULING PROBLEM?  USUALLY NOT A PROBLEM! FROM SEMI-PRIVATE TO PRIVATE COURSES AVAILABLE

WE CAN FIX JUST ABOUT ANYTHING!

The tuition for the course includes the PADI eLearning online course.  This course MUST be completed prior to the first night of class.  We require this so everyone in the class is starting from an equal level (rather than teach to the least prepared in the interest of safety).  The online course lets you study when and where you want to.   In the interest of your fellow students, you will be rescheduled to the following month and assessed a $90 transfer fee since we protect your spot once you sign up for the course.

Students who prepare do quite well in the course.  The rare student who doesn't, well,....it's ugly!

The Pools: They are big, they are beautiful, jump in the water is fine! Train in some of the nicest pools in the Metroplex!


Equipment Provided:
As part or your course fee, we will provide you with a regulator, tanks and weights.


Extra Time:    Extra Instructional time is available at the shop labor rate of $60/hr.  That's up there, I get that.  The good news is that we're that good and we can cover a lot in one hour.  This is hardly ever neccesary if you do the on-line work.

Realistic Fiscal Planning:
  Plan to budget about $550 total for the course and equipment.
