Scuba Certification

Call 352-795-2255 to speak with our dive center.

If you're a comfortable swimmer and enjoy snorkeling, then scuba diving may be your next adventure.

Our experienced instructors can safely and comfortably guide you through all the steps to become Open Water certified. This certification leads to the thrill of exploring the world’s oceans and freshwater sites that teem with wildlife, and often becomes a lifelong passion.


We at Crystal River Kayak Company & Dive Center specialize in small "Private" courses that fit your schedule. Let us know what works best for you and we’ll strive to make it happen.


 All of our course prices are all inclusive — no hidden fees!


Call us today on 352-795-2255 to talk to one of our instructors and book your next new adventure.

Are you ready to try SCUBA diving?

Introductory program

Safely try scuba diving for a day in both pool and fresh water dive sites through our beginner program. While this does not earn a certification, it’s a good way to experience diving and see if it is for you. This time can be credited towards your Open Water Diver certification if you decide to take it forward. 


Choose to dive at either Blue Grotto or Devil’s Den freshwater springs for a real taste of what diving has to offer.


Includes all gear and entrance fees - just bring a swimsuit and towel.

Knowledge & pool only: $160 p/p


Knowledge, pool & one dive: $230 p/p

Once you have completed the coursework, we begin your in-water training in the pool. Learn about the equipment and techniques divers use to comfortably and safely swim underwater.


Finally complete four open water dives at Blue Grotto or Devil's Den freshwater springs, where you will demonstrate your newly acquired skills while exploring the sites.

Ocean dives can be arranged for an additional cost.
