Dive-Masters of San Antonio

"If I had time to write a book about my experience with Dive-Masters every chapter would be a brimming with amazing stories, experiences & people! My husband & I were completely new to diving but it's always been a bucket list item. From start to finish I felt I was in the best hands & had the best experience. Dan the owner along with his family run Dive-Masters- and now that I'm PADI certified, I not only can dive the open waters confidently & safely but I feel like I made some great friends! It was also such a comfort to know Dan's background was in the military as an MD & he takes safety seriously. He also knew right away that my husband had a busted ear drum on one of our dives and was able to help us get the medical attention we needed. Dive Masters is dedicated to getting you certified at your comfort level and very encouraging as you master each objective. By my last dive, I could tell I was ready for the open waters! We can't wait to head back & sign up for specialty certifications!"

"This is my chosen dive shop. They just had an ownership change because the original owner passed away, and it caused some administrative issues. The news owners and instructors are great. They have knowledge well beyond just the material that I was looking for in a shop. They are also more interested in the spirit of scuba diving than in the business of it. They still need to make a profit, though. But the prices are very fair. It feels more like a dive club than shop when I go. Anyway, do your research before you settle on a dive shop, but don't overlook this one. For newbies, a dive shop is more than just where you buy dive equipment. It will usually be a place that you use to stay up to date on scuba related things such as: new courses, dive opportunities near you, dive volunteer activities, etc. At the very least, it will be where you fill up your tanks and get your gear inspected. It shouldn't be a trivial decision, and you should look into the skill set of the people at the shops."

"We recently took the dive masters course with instructor Travis for open water diving for an upcoming trip, their team were professionals who were forthcoming and in depth with all procedures, safety equipment, and tips for safe diving! I would recommend this place to anyone looking for a place for training or equipment. They even brought extra equipment for the dive when one of our divers was missing goggles, just in case. Great guys."

"We did the first day of diving in our open water certification with Travis on Saturday this weekend at the spring in San Marcos. The water was gorgeous and clear, though cold, and it was a great day for diving. My husband and I are a bit tough for scheduling and Tom was really helpful and flexible in getting us out to the water. Travis was a great instructor--super friendly, knowledgeable, and he really ensured that we had our skills. I am so glad we found Tom and his crew, and we can't wait to dive again with them!!!"
