Services
We want to show you some of our favorite local dive sites in an organized, eco-centric, no-touch, no-take, safe, and relaxed way. We are passionate about teaching you diving as a beginner or as a more advanced diver in small group personalized classes. We are excited to take you, and 5-6 of your new best friends, to see some of our favorite dive locations around the world.
Under the water you can see many species of nudibranch, octopus, anemone along with rockfish, chimaera, harbor seals and sea lions. All this takes place just minutes from downtown Seattle. We've had the privilege to take dive pros, film crews and a lot of first time cold water divers on their first dive in the Salish Sea.
Our maximum class size is 2 people per instructor and per class. With this class size, we provide a more personal experience and assist you becoming a more confident diver. We offer all-inclusive pricing with no hidden fees and no in-store purchases required. We'll take care of the gear - we bring your rental gear to the pool or beach and we will rinse and disinfect the gear after each session.
While we love diving in the Northwest and the Salish Sea, we also like to dive around the world. We partner with likeminded and trusted dive operators, adventure organizers and lodging providers to give you a low stress, well organized trip to lovely locations, quality accommodations and beautiful dive sites.
Also, a 5-time world masters champion track cyclist and national 6 day champion and has raced in Kona Ironman world championships. Started diving with a Discover Scuba in Mexico but all certifications completed in Seattle. Currently based in Curacao - occasionally joins us for a class or two when back in the PNW visiting her family and dive family.

Dove with Seattle Dive Tours Nov 13/15, at Seacrest and Rodondo dive parks and had an amazing time.
Seattle Dive Tours hospitality and professionalism is first class. Special thanks to Billy for his great onshore support and technical support, and Olivia for her first class Divemaster work, guiding us around all the great sites to see. Face-to-face with a Harbour Seal was the highlight!
I would recommend Seattle Dive Tours to anyone planning their next dive adventure in the area.

While visiting family in Kitsap County, I joined SDT for a two tank dive at Sund Rock in May 2021. It was an outstanding experience - excellent communication, small groups, great guides, and a superb dive day on the Hood Canal. From start to finish - communication with the dive shop, pre-dive comms, gear rental, and support at the site, it was a top notch outing.

The tours are great, the equipment's high-quality, and the guides are skilled. It's a different experience not having to carry anything to or from a dive site, but an absolutely welcome and stress-free one to be sure. All of this comes at a price, however, so I'd recommend going with these guys once or twice to get the feel of dive spots then saving yourself hundreds by just going with friends. Highly recommended though!

Seattle Dive Tours is an outstanding company. The instruction is top notch and the owner Scott is very responsive. Our instructors Scott and Kate were the best I have experienced in my dive career, which includes hundred dives around the world and the just finished rescue course. Kate answered all kinds of questions, made sure she challenged us and yet all had fun. She really put forth an effort to help us be better divers. Scott went above and beyond, not only as an instructor but as an example of his passion for diving and concern for others. An amazing business, we look forward to further training

Scott, Maddi, Zak and the whole crew at Seattle Dive Tours make training and diving fun and stress-free. From the pool to ocean, they are safe, professional, super responsive, and a pleasure to hang out with on surface interval. *Highly* recommend them for certifications, trips, or just a fun day underwater in the amazing PNW checking out nudibranchs. Thanks guys!

My dive with Klayton and Scott was beyond expectations. I highly recommend Seattle Dive Tours to beginners and experienced divers. I began diving in the 1970's and found Klayton and Scott to be highly knowledgeable and very accommodating for for my diving skills. We were able to capture some photographs under very difficult water conditions. Want to have a great dive in the Sound? Join up with Seattle Dive Tours .

Richard Anderson is a fantastic SCUBA instructor. I worked with him to gain my Rescue Diver certification, and also went with him on my first cold water dive. He is detailed, thorough, and has a great sense of humor - all traits of an excellent teacher. Versus other dive shops, his communication and response is unmatched. Most other shops have rigid schedules and are very slow to respond to inquiries, if they ever do. Richard is timely, flexible and communicative.
Highly recommend Seattle Dive Tours!
