It's the most exciting feeling imaginable! Breathing while floating weightless underwater,
part of another world. This course, followed by Open Water Certification Dives, will teach
you everything you need to independently scuba dive with a buddy to explore
& discover the
underwater realm. Our " How do I Learn?" page is a great place
to get an overview of the options for learning to dive.
Choose weekend or weeknight classes. You can even schedule a
private class
for yourself, with or without friends &
family! Credit classes (PEGN478) are
also offered at Eastern Michigan
University spring and winter semesters.
Because you prepare with home-study and
watch the video in advance, you spend
lesson time practicing skills & learning
how to be a safe, confident diver.
Once you complete your pool dives,
choose your
Open Water Certification weekend to
get your "c-card," then join us in an
Advanced class, a
local fun dive, or
on a tropical trip! You can
even complete your certification dives
on
one of our group trips, or by
referral on your own vacation
destination!
With plenty of scheduling flexibility
and a Teaching Team with over 100 years
of collective scuba teaching experience,
Huron Scuba is your best choice for
quality scuba training.
