Florida Underwater Sports SRQ 6920 South Tamiami Trail, Sarasota, FL 34231

"Visiting a sister in Sarasota and wanted to explore diving options in the area. Worked as DM in 2003 -renewed it a year ago, but haven’t been able to get back in the water since. Greg, Bo and Leanne were amazing. Good diving philosophy and willing to let me get a tank and play in the pool (all about buoyancy!) Can’t wait to join them on the wonderful overseas diving trips or back in Sarasota for nitrox certification & dives. If you’re new or experienced, great group to dive with. Professional, expert and just good folks. Can’t wait to see you all again!!"

"Stopped in with questions about adjusting a new mask. The woman who was at the counter was super helpful. She went above and beyond checking the weather conditions and giving suggestions for the area. Nice meeting you (and Harry)."

"Easily the best scuba shop in Sarasota! I’ve recently been certified here with the help from my guy Scott Kerns!! Top notch Coach, best in town. If you don’t know now you do! Lindsey and Heather are also some top notch dive instructors and went above and beyond helping me out to feel confident in the water! Love the opportunities to dive with the shop and they grill out after their weekend dives. How awesome!!"

"A Remarkable Dive Experience with Florida Underwater Sports I recently had the absolute pleasure of completing my Adventure and Rescue Diver courses at Florida Underwater Sports, and I simply cannot express enough how incredible the entire experience was. From the moment I signed up to the very last dive, the team at the shop went above and beyond to ensure I had the best experience possible. The staff at Florida Underwater Sports are the epitome of professionalism and expertise. They are down-to-earth, knowledgeable, and extremely approachable. I never felt rushed or hesitated to ask any questions I had, as they were always eager to help and educate. A special shoutout to Allison (Allí) for her dedication to teaching not only diving skills but also imparting her extensive knowledge of marine ecology. She made the courses fun, engaging, and tailored them to my interests and needs. Her enthusiasm for the underwater world truly inspired me and added immense value to my learning experience. I must also commend Florida Underwater Sports for their commitment to their students. Even though the planned class size shrank to just me, they didn't close the class or wait for more students. This truly speaks volumes about their dedication to providing personalized and accessible dive education. Florida Underwater Sports truly stands out for their commitment to customer satisfaction. They were amazingly accommodating with my scheduling needs and showed genuine passion for creating the best diving experience for me. Other dive training centers should take note and model themselves after this exemplary establishment. In addition to their top-notch training courses, Florida Underwater Sports offers a wide range of high-quality rental equipment and gear. Their expert staff are always on hand to provide guidance and recommendations, ensuring you have the perfect gear for your diving adventures. The friendly atmosphere and exceptional service at Florida Underwater Sports made me feel like I was part of their diving family. As a lifelong resident of the area, I was amazed at how my experience with this shop ignited a newfound passion for local diving. In conclusion, I wholeheartedly recommend Florida Underwater Sports for any diving enthusiasts or beginners looking to explore the underwater world.
