World class diving in our own backyard!

Welcome to the world of diving in Monterey!

Diver Dan’s wants to help you discover the many great dive sites both in and around Monterey and Carmel.

If you have any questions or would like to sign up contact us today.

Why you should participate in Discover Local Diving

Discover Local Diving is a supervised underwater tour designed to orient divers to unfamiliar aquatic conditions and environments. It may also be used to introduce divers to the open water environment after a period of diving inactivity (in conjunction with the PADI Scuba Review-Refresher program) or those divers who originally were certified in warmer water.

For those of you who have been inactive you will find that the Scuba Review program combined with Discover Local Diving is just what you need to get back in the water! The Discover Local Diving experience consists of a site orientation and dive briefing provided by a PADI Divemaster, PADI Assistant Instructor or PADI Instructor.

What do I need to start?

You will need to have obtained a PADI Open Water Diver certification or a qualifying certification from another organization and be at least 15 years old or 12 years (with a parent or guardian).

How much is it going to cost me?

$25.00 is all that is required to experience the new wonders of Monterey or Carmel Bays.

What is the class schedule?

The Discover Local Diving experience consists of just one short orientation classroom session at 7pm that Friday night and one day of ocean diving on Saturday.

Due to dive site availability and conditions the exact dive site and time will be determined during the orientation on Friday night at 7pm.  You MUST attend the orientation.

Please DO NOT call the store before the orientation asking when and where the dive site will be.
