- Personal Gear Package: (Mask, Snorkel, Fins, Booties, Gloves) $50 credit towards this purchase for our students! These packages vary greatly, and should never be purchased online, as they need to be properly fitted by a Dive Professional, and need to be Life Support/Scuba Quality.

Any gear you purchase for your class that does not meet your needs or fit properly, will be exchanged for you, prior to your open water dives.
