My husband and I took CPR with Dave and he was really awesome! He explained things really well and kept it simple. It’s a lot to remember but I feel so much more confident I can help in an emergency after having him teach us! You can also tell he’s got a very kind heart and is just a good soul.He’s also a dive instructor and my husband has a desire to learn so he will be back. I highly recommend learning here as Dave is top notch!

Scuba Adventures in Plano is a great place for, equipment and training. Derek was a fantastic instructor in our refresher course.

I recently completed the Open Water Dive certification, and can’t say enough great things about Scuba Adventures Plano and their staff and instructors. I came into this with zero Scuba experience, and they made me feel comfortable throughout the entire process starting with the selection of my personal gear. I strongly recommend them and have already booked another class for additional training.

Completed my scuba certification and have to say the Brent & Barry were amazing! They were both patient and knowledgeable. The staff in the scuba shop are also all so sweet. If you’re considering getting your certification just do it here (& sign up for a private lesson if you’re able though I saw Barry with a group and he was great with them)

Derek was an awesome instructor for our refresher class! Made it really easy and fun to do the course! Definitely recommend!

Had a lot of fun

Outstanding Dive Shop with Exceptional Instructors!! I can't say enough great things about Scuba Adventures. From the moment I walked in, the team made me feel completely welcomed and at ease. Special thank you to my instructors Preston, Zach, and Barry! They were all very patient and the knowledge they bring to the table is top-tier. It's clear they’re passionate not only about diving but also about teaching it the right way. Every session was informative, safe, and a lot of fun. I left each class feeling more confident and excited about diving than ever before. If you're considering scuba diving or just want to connect with a solid dive community, Scuba Adventures is the place to go. Highly recommend!

Enjoyed every second of my time with Dave and Bonnie our instructors. The overall experience with the Scuba Adventures from walking through the doors to get set up with gear and classes, to the weekend pool time all the way to our weekend at the lake at Scuba Ranch in Terrell was an amazing and awesome experience! I would highly recommend them to anyone that is wanting to get into scuba diving.

I have now taken a few courses through this shop, and I have experienced a massively high level of commitment to customer service, safety, and professionalism. Notably Autumn who I believe manages the store, and most recent dive instructor Mitzi Holdren.This past weekend Mitzi led my rescue diver training and Autumn assisted on the 1st of 2 days. Autumn, as always, was extremely helpful and supportive. I especially feel compelled to call out Mitzi as the best dive instructor with whom I’ve ever worked. I hold advanced open water and several specialty certifications.I told Mitzi I’m not there to brag about a new “card”, rather I felt a moral obligation to learn rescue diver skills. Mitzi was incredibly patient, instructive, and tough when she needed to be. I failed to adequately demonstrate the necessary skills on Saturday, and she clearly stated that to me, but she went out of her way to make it clear that this was not a failure, it was a normal part of a very challenging process. She then made herself available to me the next day to work on the skills, giving me every possible opportunity to perform the skills sufficiently to pass the corse.This was not a certification I “bought”. It was earned through hard work and commitment on my part, but without the professionalism, clear communication, integrity, expertise, sense of humor, and tough love from my instructor, I would not have achieved what may be the hardest thing I’ve ever done.Thank you Brent and Scuba Adventures for connecting me with Mitzi. I am a better diver thanks to you all.

Scuba Adventures is a great learning center and dive shop! Barry is an excellent trainer who really cares about his students and their success in diving. Autumn, is very knowledgeable and skilled at helping choose your personal gear. Overall Scuba Adventures wants to help you succeed and become a skilled diver!!

I just finished up my scuba refresher course @ Scuba Plano. It was a great experience and Derrick was AWESOME! He made the class fun, he was very knowledgeable, and he made sure to answer any questions that we had.

I have to shout out Scuba Adventures. We booked for snorkeling class months in advance because we were going to open water to swim with whalesharks and my daughter had never snorkeled. A booking snafu potentially could have ruined our training but they demonstrated the highest customer service and resolved our issue quickly. Thanks to Doug, our instructor, we accomplished our bucketlist goal with confidence.Tip- they may require a doctor's note to ok training so be sure to fill out health forms asap and give yourself time.

I WENT TO ASK SOME INFORMATION ABOUT THE CLASSES, AND LUCY IS THE BEST OF THE BEST, SHE IS WONDERFUL, SHE TOOK HER TIME TO EXPLAIN TO ME AND SHOW ME EVERYTHING I HAVE TO KNOW, DEFINITELY I'LL BE BACK TO TAKE THE CLASS. THANK YOU LUCY.

Great experience & so glad I did a refresher/ ReActivate course. Brent was patient with me & definitely helped to 'refresh' my skills! I was also working against a quick timeline & they were able to get me in a private course that worked with my schedule.

Love scuba adventures!! Great instructors

I recently completed my Open Water and Nitrox certification with Scuba Adventures and couldn’t be happier with the experience. The entire team was professional, organized, and made the entire process seamless from start to finish.A special thank you to my instructor, Barry, who went above and beyond to ensure I felt confident and fully prepared for my open water check-out dives. His clear instruction and ability to foster a supportive learning environment made a huge difference in my overall experience. I felt incredibly well prepared every step of the certification process. I highly recommend Scuba Adventures to anyone pursuing diving.

I took the Open Water Scuba course and loved it. Barry did a great job instructing and handling and normalizing anxieties I had including those I didn't know I had.Everyone in the shop was super helpful when it came to gear knowing pros and cons, and comparing features across models.

Just completed open water certification with Barry at scuba ranch. Also worked in the pool with Preston the week before. Both amazing and patient instructors. My son and I took the class together and it was great to see his progression as well as my own. Highly recommend Scuba Adventures. We have also done Boy Scout merit badges with them, including swimming and life saving. The staff at the shop are also amazing and will work with you with infinite patience as you find just the right gear!

I just recently obtained my open water and Nitrox certification through Scuba Adventures and it was so seamless, easy and professional! Barry was my instructor and he made us all feel so safe, supported and his teaching style was extremely easy to follow along with. I left each session excited to go back and learn more. If anyone is apprehensive about starting their scuba career, I would highly encourage you going with Scuba Adventures. Thank you Barry and Scuba Adventures team, I cannot wait to get back and obtaining more certifications!

I completed both my Open Water and Nitrox certifications here, and I genuinely wouldn’t go anywhere else. This place will always be my go-to for dive training. Barry was our instructor, and he was absolutely incredible—his positive energy, patience, support, and great sense of humor made the entire experience unforgettable.The whole team is genuinely invested in your success and passion for diving. They’ll take the time to get you fully set up and comfortable with your gear before you even step into the water. Once you’re diving, the pace is relaxed and encouraging. Even when the information feels overwhelming at first, the instructors break everything down into manageable, practical skills that just start to click.By the end, you’re not just certified—you’re walking away with amazing dive experiences, a deeper love for the sport, and lasting memories. This is more than just a dive center—it’s a tight-knit, supportive community where strangers quickly become friends, and friends feel like family.

Scuba Adventures completely transformed my life. I came in with fear and panic, unsure if I could even make it underwater. But thanks to their incredible team, I left feeling fearless and confident as I become a certified scuba diver. Every member of the staff was patient, kind, and truly dedicated to finding creative, supportive ways to help me succeed. They didn’t give up on me—instead, they believed in me until I believed in myself. If you’re nervous or unsure, this is the place to go. Scuba Adventures Plano doesn’t just train divers—they empower people.

My son had a wonderful experience doing the discovery dive today with Bary. I wanted my son to love diving so we can celebrate an upcoming birthday diving as a family. I’m sure glad Bary’s calm and confident demeanor made it possible for my son to be at ease and enjoy the pool today. Onto signing up for the certification! BTW great and clean locker rooms and facility in general.

Great experience getting my scuba certification here! The staff were super supportive and kind. Even when I wanted to give up, they told me, “we don’t give up on you until you give up on us.” Special thanks to my instructor Tom Vyles he was patient, knowledgeable, and always made me feel safe and confident in the water. He even took some great graduation photos for me, which I’ll always appreciate. Highly recommend!

Wonderful experiences this weekend with final certification. Barry and Zack were terrific. The entire staff is patient and encouraging. I highly recommend for anybody considering scuba certification. The shop owner is also fantastic to work with and the store environment is very inviting. It was also wonderful getting to do the first weekend in the pool at the store.

I can’t say enough about how great Scuba Adventures is!My husband I initially did the scuba exploration and had a blast! I felt so comfortable and safe, the best part was the instructor never pushed anyone to go in the deep end and even said that if you’d prefer to do it another day you could.After our scuba exploration class we signed up for the open water certification where we had 4 classes over 4 weeks with a weekend certification event. Our instructors, Enrique and Barry, were amazing! They made the entire class fun and engaging, most importantly they made sure everyone was comfortable. I have anxiety and sometimes it took me longer to do the activities but both Enrique and Barry were always there making sure we calmed down and took our time. They were so kind and funny and it was really a great class.The weekend trip to the scuba ranch was also really fun, it gave us a chance to put our skills to the test! Most importantly, no one was ever left behind, we worked as a team and did our best. I highly recommend Scuba Adventures!

This is the only SCUBA shop I make my bigger purchases with, and I've never felt a need to go elsewhere. The staff is professional and eager to help. They work with some amazing instructors who genuinely care for your comfort, education, and safety. I've also had service work done here and have no complaints--it was completed by the time quoted and they were able to work with me to ensure it was ready prior to a class/lake dive.

Got my open water certification with David Blastingame and Bonnie. I cannot say enough about my instructors, everyone I talked to in the shop and every other instructor I met. The whole experience was amazing and so much fun. David cooked us some wonderful pulled pork on certification day. We had a blast! Highly recommend using them for any scuba needs or certifications. You couldn’t find better people!

My GF and I recently went through the open water (& nitrox) certification with David and Bonnie. They were such an amazing team that went above and beyong to make us feel comfortable even though my GF was anxious at times. You can tell they truly love scuba diving and want to share their passion with everyone in a safe and educational manner. I would highly recommend Scuba Adventures Plano to anyone looking to get into scuba diving.

Amazing customer service....I live out of state and and a warranty issue on a piece of equipment purchased from them. They helped me work with the company rep and get a replacement shipped to me in time for my week of diving in Florida....Great people, will be visiting them again!

I took the SDI open water certification course through Scuba Adventures. The communication is on point from emails and texts explaining steps and reminders. The shop was great in getting me fitted with my personal equipment and later updating my wife's personal equipment. Jen was awesome as an instructor. She was knowledgeable, patient, reassuring, and encouraging. During the lake days the entire team was amazing and vigilant in keeping us safe and ensuring we well trained and disciplined divers. Barry and Jen fed off each other as instructors adding value during the weekend. The dive masters Brett, Vince, Tom, and Patrick were a reassuring presence as was dive master candidate Ryan. Finally, the shop once again was great when returning the rental equipment and helping with submitting my wife's regulator assembly for servicing and inspection. I am certainly going to be pursuing my advanced certification and my wife will be doing her nitrox so that we can do some deeper dives together in the clear blue. Thank you Scuba Adventures.

Berry, Enrique, & Brent were wonderful and I’m proud to say I’m officially a certified scuba diver! I feel so lucky to have had smart, experienced, and patient instructors! I can’t recommend them & this shop more! Off to Cozmel in June to put my new beloved hobby to use! So excited!

My daughter and I just did the discover class. The instructor was great and very patient. I would highly recommend!

My wife and I had some regulators serviced by Scuba Adventures, and we were on a tight deadline. An issue with delivery from the service tech created a time crunch before our trip. Brent, the owner reached, out and offered to give us full equipment from his rental fleet for our trip if indeed our gear did not arrive in time. Fortunately it did, but being close to our departure date we didn't have time to go for a lake dive and check it out, so Brent (again) offered a solution and allowed us to use his pool, tanks and BCD's to check out our regs and get comfortable the day before our trip. I call that "outstanding" service; service like you don't see much anymore from businesses. I'm sold on using Scuba Adventures, Brent, and his team for all of my future diving needs!

My husband and I got our OW certification here a few years ago and have been back for a refresher and specialty class. We’ve had exceptional experiences every time. Our most recent class was with Barry, who was very thorough, patient, and knowledgeable. Brent, the shop owner, is also a great dude and a true expert on all things scuba! We’ve booked dive trips through this shop and have bought all our gear here. Never had anything but an awesome experience! We’ve gone diving through resorts several times and I feel like even as a new diver I was more competent than others more “experienced” than me. I feel like this is a testament to the great job the instructors at this facility do. They’re not just churning out certifications, they’re creating safe, competent divers. We will continue to visit this shop for all our scuba needs!!

The staff here is incredibly helpful and knowledgeable. They also have a good selection of equipment. Highly recommend scuba adventures!

Great Open Water certification course culminating with a lake dive at Spring Lake in San Marcos with Barry.

Im new to the world of diving and catching on relatively quickly. 👍😊 I'm a Advance Open Water, Deep, Night, DrySuit, and Drift diver. 🌊🤿 It's amazing. ✨ I decided to take the class on Visual Inspection because I wanted to understand what the inside looked like. 🤔 What were the hazards. 🤔 Windal Adams was very informative and thorough. 💯 This shop is actually filled with quite wonderful and pleasant people. 🥰 Diving isn't for everyone although I wish more would just try because there is whole amazing world to discover. 🌎🐠 I'm rambling. 😜 Hats off to the instructor, my fellow classmates that are also part of the staff. 👏 You can tell they care. ❤️ The owner is friendly and very kind. 🤗 When you walk in they are there with a smile and ready to help you on new adventure. 🤝🎉

Going to Scuba Adventures in Plano is always a positive experience. They are very knowledgeable and passionate about what they do. They spend a lot of time with their costumers and make sure that all questions are answered and equipment is just right for you whatever your level. We will always go there for our Scuba needs

Amazing experience from start to finish! Very friendly, and helpful employees at the shop. Derek was my pool instructor and he was great. Very patient and helpful. He did a very nice job catering to each students speed of progression. The open water dive was at Spring Lake in San Marcos. The instructors were amazing again. Very helpful, and very patient. They were very safety conscious and concerned about making sure everything was done properly which is what I wanted when it comes to scuba diving. Again, amazing experience from start to finish!

Great dive shop. Everyone is totally knowledgeable about products and services. I bought some equipment and took a refresher course. The refresher course was simple, with an online portion and an in-water portion in their great 15-foot pool on premises. My instructor was Barry, who was absolutely fantastic. The course was detailed enough to remind me of the basics I needed to get right back in the ocean. I highly recommend this shop.

Great shop and training facility. We did a refresher class with Barry after being out of the water for 15 years. He’s a very good and skilled instructor.

The staff at Scuba Adventure has been super friendly and knowledgeable every time we have been there for Scuba gear.

I just finished my certification for Open Water diving and diving with Nitrox.Starting with the intro dive, all the instructors were first-rate. I felt safe, well-monitored, and taken care of at all times; our pool divers and open water divers were excellent.I'm a satisfied customer and expect to look to Scuba Adventures over and over for supplies, training, and advice.

I highly recommend Scuba Adventures, I took the snorkel class and learned more than I ever imagined and feel more confident. Derrick Coleman is an amazing instructor, he was so knowledgeable, experienced, and patient which made it relaxing and fun. I will come back to take it to another level, and get scuba certified! They have top of the line equipment to use and for sake with a great team that treat you like family. Thank you!

I cannot say enough great things about Scuba Adventures Plano! From the moment I walked in, the staff was incredibly friendly, knowledgeable, and genuinely passionate about scuba diving. Whether you're a beginner or a seasoned diver, this place has something for everyone.Their training programs are top-notch, with instructors who are patient, professional, and make every lesson fun and engaging. I felt completely at ease during my certification process and confident in my skills by the end of the course.The selection of gear in their shop is excellent—high-quality products at competitive prices—and the staff is always ready to help you find exactly what you need.What truly sets Scuba Adventures Plano apart is the sense of community they foster. Their dive trips and events are well-organized and full of excitement, offering unforgettable underwater experiences.If you're looking for the best dive shop in the Plano area, this is it! Highly recommend to anyone interested in exploring the underwater world.

Great place! Very nice staff!

I have not gone scuba diving in over 10 years and was concerned about how much I'd forgotten so I took a refresher course. My instructor, Barry, was phenomenal, patient, and informative. After two hours I felt like it all came rushing back and it reawakened my love for diving. I'm beyond grateful for Scuba Adventures and would highly recommend to new and experienced divers, alike!

Not surprisingly given the many excellent reviews , this place is a cut above all others. I have been diving for about 20 years now and this is the most professional, knowledgeable and user friendly outfit I have ever been to and I have been all over the world. Was in town for business and inquired about a scuba class, not really expecting much so last minute. Received an immediate response. As I usually do I asked too many questions, all were answered. Took a peak performance buoyancy class with David. Cannot say enough about this guy— Friendly, knowledgeable, a lot of real world experience that he shares with ease. What I really appreciate about him is the extent to which he holds you to a standard: he is a super nice guy but he wants to make sure that you know what you’re doing before you leave, in other words when you walk out with that card (which you will do because they have a card printer there unlike many places that mail it to you weeks later or forget to entirely) you’ve definitely earned it. He effortlessly weaves in stories, close calls etc with the lesson plan. There is a real sense of accomplishment walking out of here— I think their bias is to teach self improvement through scuba. What an awesome concept.If you are considering any level of additional training, definitely try these guys out. For me, this experience was a game changer, and since Ive been diving for quite a while, I honestly did not expect that.

Took a refresher and had a terrific instructor who ensured we will be diving safely! Pool was warm and we had ample time to practice all the things each of us felt we needed to focus on.
