For this, we completely disassemble the regulator and clean all of the parts as prescribed by the manufacturer. We then reassemble the regulator, replacing the warranty parts (typically this includes but may not be limited to the filter, valve seats, and dynamic O-rings), and inspecting all of the components.

I just finished a dry suit certification course through these guys. After the first set of checkout dives I developed a bit of sinus and ear issues was not comfortable diving the second day to finish the checkouts. I let the instructor know this and had no issues rescheduling the checkout dives. During the first set of dives my instructor, David, noticed that I was having some ever so slight issues keeping my feet below my head. He suggested using ankle weights which I used on the second day and what a difference. They were extremely professional and helpful throughout the process. They also processed

Wow. What a disappointment. Rude customer service. Incredibly disappointed with how I was treated. I’ll spend my money elsewhere.
Edited to add: This literally had nothing to do with being asked to put on a mask. I happily put the mask on. This has EVERYTHING to do with the fact that you talked down to me and told me I was wrong. I wasn't even given a second to explain WHY I was looking for an analog dive watch with a depth gauge. My daughter is only 6 months in on her dive certification. I am a third generation commercial fisherman. We want her to KNOW her dive tables because technology fails

Wife and I signed up for our open water PADI course here. The entire process has been amazing. Everyone at the store has been friendly and helpful. The store is clean, and they follow CDC guidance on operating a business in the pandemic.
We have not done our open water dives yet, we just finished our confined water dives with an instructor named Rick. Rick is awesome. He clearly loves scuba diving and likes teaching it. He was a great guy who really wanted to make sure we all knew what we were doing. He also let us have some fun on our own in the pool while watching attentively. Some of the other

What a great team! I've been snorkeling for years, and would buy a set of fins or a new mask here, and recently, I took the plunge into SCUBA. I had a team of great instructors, between Art, Amy, and Brian, I learned so much. Add in Zach and Captain Jim at the store, and there is so much knowledge and insight, I now make a list of questions to take with me when I go. I love this place. Now, I just need to get back in the water for some more experience diving.
Thanks folks!
Thanks folks!

Carolina Dive Center never fails to live up to the expectations of a great dive trip. Always friendly, fun and professional from the dive shop and staff to the well organized trips near and far. This was our first trip to Clarks Cay, Honduras, the food was incredible and Clarks Cay personnel went above and beyond to ensure everyone had a spectacular time. I cannot say enough good things about this trip, but I will say this. Carolina Dive Center never fails to live up to our expectations. Thank you to Jim and Elise (CDC) and Lee (Clarks Cay)

Carolina Diving Center is a great place to get PADI certified! The employees are really nice and the teachers are amazing (so patient and flexible!). I highly recommend getting diving training because the first thing they teach you is how to handle issues under water! It really helped me be more confident and relaxed (even out of the water). Good luck on your PADI adventure!
Also, don't forget to ask the instructors on their adventures and how they got to be instructors! There is a whole world of diving you can learn about in just one place!!!

I recently completed PADI Open Water SCUBA with Carolina Dive Center. I had the pleasure of working with many of the fine instructors during my pool sessions, and check out dives at Fantasy Lake Quarry & Charleston Tug. Paul, Art, Zach, Nicole, Jim, David, and Ricky were all fantastic. They are passionate about teaching and make it fun while remaining safe at all times.
The shop also has knowledgeable staff and fair pricing to help you find good quality gear based on your budget. I will be continuing my dive instruction with Carolina Dive Center and look forward to advancing my skills. If you

I have recently completed an open water certification (SCUBA camp) and I must say that taking the training with Carolina Dive Center was a fantastic experience. The entire staff of the center was very friendly and helpful. The training was focused on safety and at the same time they are doing their best to promote SCUBA diving sport in general. I could feel their enthusiasm. The instructors were great, very patient and knowledgeable. I’ve felt that I am learning from true professionals. At the same time the family atmosphere in the center makes you feel very welcome and comfortable. I will be

From scheduling to completing my Open Water Certification, Carolina Dive Center and their team were awesome! With my limited schedule, they were able to work with me and complete my certification prior to my trip. Phillip was patient with my skill level and addressed any and all questions I had during my pool sessions. Dennis provided a calm and open atmosphere for my open water sessions. I never felt rushed or uncomfortable throughout the entire experience. I highly recommend Carolina Dive Center!
