Sea life like a Gypsy.
Our one-stop-shop
Located in Raleigh, NC since 1984, we’ve prided ourselves on being your one-stop dive shop for training, equipment, travel, and service. Our pool stays at a wonderful 88 degrees year-round, offering a place for our divers to get certified, try out new equipment, further advance their training, and even become better swimmers.
Our Mission
Our mission is to make sure everyone enjoys their time learning to dive with us and leaves as comfortable, confident divers. Because comfortable divers are safe divers. We only offer custom one-on-one Open Water Diver courses to ensure you get the schedule you want, the pace you need, and the attention you deserve.
To ensure our mission’s success…
We’re offering Free Scuba Lessons if you purchase your total dive system.
There is no substitute for training in and owning your own equipment. It makes the whole experience that much more valuable and ensures you’ll be a comfortable diver no matter where you go.
Now that you’re certified…
Explore the world with us!
Once you’re certified, we’ll keep the fun rolling with dive trips located around the world. From Florida to Truk lagoon, we are following our founders’ love for adventure.
