Scuba Schools of America

"I recently returned home from my second international trip with Scuba Schools of America & Swim. Rusty is the king of the ocean supporting and encouraging all scuba divers to experience all that Belize had to offer underwater. My husband and I had a great time and will book again with these awesome scuba diving adventure travelers!"

"If you are looking for a school that has professional instructors that don't rush you in class and will teach you everything the right way from the start I recommend Rusty and his team! Not only do they teach you scuba they will teach you the right way of doing even simple things so it becomes 2nd nature from the start. I love these guys they got me back into scuba and taught me everything I need to know so I can dive better & finaly get to even 100' deep and back safely. Not only do they teach they have a pool on site so you can go whenever and test new gear or prep for classes, the store has anything and everything you need and I enjoy my custom bcd that can hold double the normal amount of air you buy from other shops, and I quite like it a lot! Make sure to take advantage of this shop because you will learn a lot, I seen a lot of instructors from other places that just seem beat because they had so many bad students so they have to go up and down with them hurting both instructor and students but because they prep you before the ocean many of the basic open water students seem much more professional than at other places! I trust Rusty crew with my life and my kids and seen them train many family's the right way to enjoy this amazing sport!"

"Great shop… by training here, you not only get great training… you also get a great dive community. Many shops get you through minimum requirements to get you certified, but rusty makes sure the you are actually ready to dive even if it requires extra pool sessions and extra dives to make you ready to dive proficiently. As far as the community, it is like a fun extended family with a passion for diving"

"Went on a Dive today with scuba schools of America. Had an amazing time. Rusty made the dives fun! He was very patient and knowledgeable of the area plus all equipment. He made adjustments to our equipment that made our dives a success! What a fantastic day! Can't wait for my next dive adventure with scuba schools of America."

"Scuba Schools of America is the best dive shop around. They offer many classes and products, including customizable systems. My son and I took the open water course to start. As beginners, it focuses on skills and safety. Allie and Rusty are great instructors who made us feel comfortable in the water. For more practice, the pool is open anytime. Our ocean dives were spectacular. We saw bat rays, sea turtles, horn sharks, lobsters, giant sea bass, and multiple other species of fish. Get out there and dive !"
