Is this a pool experience only?

Yes, this all takes place in a pool.

The pool is located at the Eisenhower Aquatic Center in Nassau County.

Do I need to know how to swim?

You don’t need to be an Olympic swimmer, but you should feel comfortable in the water. If you can float, kick, and keep your cool, you’ll be fine. The shallow end is 3 feet deep so you can always just stand up if you are not comfortable.

We have a pool. Can you come to us?

Absolutely. Provided that you are staying at a place with a pool, have host approval, or have a pool yourself in which you would like to host, we are happy to come to you and run the experience where you are. We ask for a minimum of 8 people to do this.

Like any adventure activity, SCUBA does carry some risks, but we manage them carefully. Our instructors are certified professionals who specialize in first-time divers, and you’ll start in a shallow pool where you can literally stand up if you ever feel uncomfortable. We only head to the beach if conditions are calm and everyone in the group feels ready. Your comfort comes first, and you’re in control the whole time.

How long does it last?

About 90 minutes to 2 hours depending on Group Size.

Can we drink alcohol before or during the dive?

No. Alcohol and diving don’t mix. Save the champagne for after. Trust us, bubbles are better when they’re in a glass post-dive. All participants must be 100% sober.

What do I need to bring?

Swimsuit + towel Dry clothes for after We’ll provide all SCUBA gear, instructors, and the laughs.

What if the weather is bad?

The pool is indoors! If we are coming to you and the pool is outdoors, it does not rain underwater!

What’s with the photographer add-on?

We have an underwater photographer who can take photos of you and your group having a blast. Our photographer will snap professional shots of your group underwater so nobody has to rely on shaky selfies. Think of it as proof you actually pulled this off. +$400

What kind of games do you play for parties?

We can go fun and light for birthdays, and even do kids games if it's a family affair, or more risque for bachelor/bachelorette parties. Fun underwater challenges designed to keep the group laughing and engaged. Every party’s a little different, and we’ll tailor it to your crew’s vibe.

Do we need to sign anything?

Yes, everyone fills out a quick health + liability form before diving. It’s standard in SCUBA and helps keep things safe.

How big of a group can we bring?

Our minimum is 6 people. There is no maximum, but we may need to rotate groups in order to maintain supervision standards.

Highly recommend! Incredible service, extremely reliable place to get scuba certified for both beginner open water and advanced! I never dive with anyone else. The trips to Cozumel, La Paz, and Bonaire are excellent every time.

After going snorkeling on a boat, someone said I should go scuba diving because I am a natural in the water. When I was a kid I wanted to get scuba certified but never did. So I sought to get open water certified, I googled places in my area and came across scuba network. They were offering the best deal in town to get open water certified. Choosing scuba network was the best thing I ever did. All of the scuba network employees are very thorough and strict about safety. Not to mention they are all amazing people . They make you feel very comfortable and at ease. Shout out to Meghan, Jon, Enzo, and Ryan. They make you feel like family. I definitely recommend going diving with them.

This place and Collin were absolutely great! During our vacation we decided to try scuba diving. We were able to get a last minute slot for Discover Scuba. We worked one on one with Collin at the pool until we were completely comfortable with our gear and with what we would be doing underwater. The following day we caught a boat ride and went for our first dive. Collin gave us all the tools we needed to do a safe dive and have fun! I freaked out a couple of times but he didn't stress he just held on to me and helped me explore. I loved it and would go diving again and if we're ever in Miami or Fort Lauderdale again we'll be seeing them.

Solid shop with really approachable and knowledgeable staff. Went in to get a diving camera case and a few odds and ends and ended up talkin’ with Dan and Colin for a good little while about everything diving related. Super positive, kind, and knowledgeable. Def planning on going back and getting my advanced cert there.
