Got my open water certification in February through Southern Dive Center and it was a great experience. Class was fun and material was presented in a way that was easy to understand and gain confidence through out the process . Demian Ingerman was my instructor and I can't say enough good about him. His passion for diving shows in his teaching. He went above and beyond to help you feel confident and make sure you understood everything you needed to get started diving. I highly recommend Demian and Southern Dive Center and am looking forward to diving with them soon.
