We encourage our instructors to travel around the world to gain valuable experiences to bring back and share with you, bringing a higher level of both excitement and knowledge to our company.

Safety

Maintaining strict instructor-to-student ratios helps The Scuba Company provide the highest level of safety possible. Dive Masters assist instructors and students by providing an extra set of hands, which supports a safer and more efficient learning environment. We also have an extensive set of policies implemented to PADI standards to complement our instructors’ commitments to safety.

Rental and Sales Equipment

Only the best up-to-date equipment will be provided to students. Aqua Lung is the industry leader in scuba gear, and we use their top-of-the-line dive gear to guarantee student safety and comfort. Breathing is the most important part of scuba diving, and the Aqua Lung Legend regulator provides a seamless breathing experience. Additional dive equipment also includes modern Buoyancy Control Devices (BCDs), comfortable wetsuits, and dive computers.

No Hidden Fees

Our course fee includes the learning materials, instructor and pool fees, gear rental, and the official certification card. The only items outside of this fee are personal gear (mask, snorkel, fins, and boots), the Santa Rosa dive permit, and any transportation/ accommodations.
