We're currently negotiating packages for the Maldives, Belize, return trip to Fiji, Truk Lagoon, and Bonaire! We are out diving just about every weekend (during the winter too) and would love to have you join us! These are not guided dives (we could arrange if you wish), just divers diving together!
Anyone is welcome to attend and will be fully certified to administer help when someone needs it. If you love it and want to sign up for a class, we will credit the $25 towards your course. Package pricing, suited for any budget is so successful that we will continue it into 2021.

Services
In 2009, we took our passion for scuba diving and put it into Aquatic Escapes Dive Center. With well over 40 years combined experience as divers, we built a business platform putting divers' needs first. From instruction to sales, repairs, rental and travel; we take great pride in our business and customer satisfaction!
We proudly supply hand selected, top quality equipment with different levels of pricing to fit your budget! Buy once and buy right. Our service isn't limited to land, we are also your source for getting comfortable under the water by finding your balance of buoyancy and trim. A skill that sounds easy, but is often difficult to achieve without a little help.
Semi-dry suits (keeps you WARM!) Are you a parent looking to dive with a child? We not only will teach you to dive, we will show you how to care for your child in the water. Already a diver? We encourage you to join your child for his/her training and out dives, that way you will learn his/her strengths (and it'll be a refresher for you!).
Wether you are a diver or not, this is a valuable course to take. Anyone is welcome to attend and will be fully certified to administer help when someone needs it. The CPROX course is a straight forward, on nonsense appraoch to teaching you as the first responder to an emergency how to handle the situation.
Every diver's journey starts with an Open Water Diver course. Here, you will learn to dive safely down to 60 feet. In this course, you will complete a combination of home study, classroom, pool and ocean training. During the water portion of your training, you will learn a series of skills and given time to demonstrate and perfect them.

I was looking for a scuba shop to certify my daughter while I got a refresher so we could dive together. Mike and Sue were very friendly and helpful through the entire experience. We have continued to visit their shop for our equipment needs and additional training. I highly recommend them for any diving needs. (Bonus points for the heated pool!)

Called to inquire about Open Water certification for my boyfriend and a refresher course for me. Sue was friendly, patient, and informative spending time to explain the different options and even making recommendations. I’m so excited to have found a great dive shop and community in my own backyard!

Looked around to learn to dive and chose Aquatic Escapes due to their extreme flexibility with the classes. They worked the classes around our schedules, which over the summer were not consistent. Then they were EXTREMELY helpful when purchasing equipment for the class - never once pushing to purchase a more expensive or extra item. On the 4 open water dives, Mike was great and made sure everyone was comfortable and could do the skills being tested. Even giving extra time and opportunities to get them done.
I could not have been happier and cannot recommend them high enough. Any additional classes

I've always wanted to dive, but I've never thought I had the time to commit. And, there are a lot of options for certification. From the time we met them, Mike and Sue have been patient, kind, and friendly. Mike is the kind of teacher you want - he's able to adjust training based on your strengths and weaknesses and he's seen it all.
For gear, I like that they've chosen to focus on gear they personally believe in. Between the two of them, they know all of the details you need to make a good decision. Their prices are good and they treat their customers fairly. Quite frankly, this is the kind of

Sue and Mike are fantastic! They explain details about your equipment that other local dealers neglect to mention, details that make a difference. My wife and I were PADI certified divers, yet became convinced that the SSI (SCUBA Schools International) training was much better, which it is. Mike goes the extra mile (literally) to see to it that you’re comfortable with the conditions of your dive and very well prepared. Highly recommend them for all of your SCUBA needs, even a chance to go to exotic places... places your probably never thought you would go, like Fiji or Bonaire...

On your way to the airport, ocean, or lake dives, this shop is convenient off Exit 4 of I–93. I have high expectations of myself and others I am dealing with.These people are the real deal! They are fair, knowledgeable, easy to find, and I plan to continue my training, diving, and purchases with them.
It’s to your best interest to stop by this family owned business. Talk to them, ask questions, and see if they are a good fit for you, or just drop by Sunday morning to refill your tanks after running late Saturday night. Good luck finding anyone else open on Sundays! The shop has commutable

Genuinely nice and helpful people. Sue and Mike went out of their way to help me with a mask I didn't even buy there. Mike patiently tended to me while in the pool, adjusted/changed my gear and offered valuable advice. The trip from home is 1 hour, but so worth it to get the kind of service they provide. Never had such a great feeling about a dive shop before.

I visited Aquatic Escapes a little over a year ago to see what they had to offer. The usual lake dives and "cattle herded" guided tours seemed to be the norm for this area. I was pleasantly surprised to find a shop that is truly passionate about making diving fun and exciting. Mike and Sue care about their customers and they go out of their way to ensure people are well taken care of. Recently I went on a trip to North Carolina with these guys and had the time of my life.
For the novice diver (or even someone just getting back into the sport), you will not find a more patient and helpful team

You can't beat the service that you get here! Mike and Sue are incredibly friendly and willing to go above and beyond to help you get what you want or need. They do not pressure you and are willing to discuss all their products at length before you make a decision. In addition to running the shop, they have dive outings at least twice a week where anyone is welcome to tag along. They are happy to run their class schedule on your terms, meeting whenever is convenient for you. There is a pool on site to do pool dives or simply to test out your equipment. Always willing to rent or loan suits as well
