"I highly recommend this shop for any gear and rentals! The prices are great and the service is even better. They always go the extra mile making sure our rental gear has everything we need. They are very responsive by email as well and great to deal with. Looking forward to be able to go on excursions with them. My new and favorite dive shop in Arizona!"

"My fiancée and I made a 15 hour round trip to Paragon Dive Group and it was worth every minute and every penny! We’d both decided on Dive Rite gear and the company’s sales team steered us towards Paragon Dive Group. They weren’t even the closest Dive Rite dealer but came so highly recommended by the guys making the gear themselves that the choice was a no brainer. We’d make the trip again in a heartbeat. Paragon Dive Group’s customer service, knowledge and recommendations of the team, and how expertly they assembled and fit our gear for us was world class. They even tested everything in store and dealt with minor issues. They also had all the inventory on hand so there was no ordering or waiting. “Oh, you want the other wing? We’ve got it in the back.” There was no upselling or pressure to buy. Just straightforward explanations and honest answers. Of course every business wants to make the biggest sales but I felt like Paragon was more interested in what we wanted out of our gear. We came with just masks, fins, and dive computers and we left with everything we needed to dive, already assembled, fitted, and tested. The two week wait to finally get in the water with our new gear was excruciating! I want to mention that the owner, Ben, was extremely helpful in the emails and the call I had with him. Ben explained the pros and cons of various choices and helped us make the decision of what to buy easy. He was teaching when we came into town but promised we’d be in good hands with Alex. Alex was also incredible. Super friendly, passionate about diving, and knew the products they carried in and out. We would’ve spent hours trying to figure out how to put together our backplate and wing style rigs and he had them assembled and made minor adjustments in minutes. I truly mean this when I say it - the trip was worth making just for their help and suggestions. Alex knew what size rigs we needed, the lift we’d want, the weight pockets we should have and then patiently talked me through how it all went together while I did the easy part and watched. For our first dives with completely new gear and a different setup than a traditional BCD we did two easy drift dives before hitting the cenotes around Playa Del Carmen. Cavern diving was wild and entirely new to us, life changing, and a little terrifying too lol. But thanks to everyone at Paragon Dive Group we were prepared. Well, at least our gear was! No amount of gear can prepare you for the inky blackness and brilliant blues of the water, the feeling of being inside the planet, and the mind bending visuals of diving through a halocline or seeing air bubbles on the ceiling like mercury. TLDR: Go for the knowledgeable team, the wide inventory, and the setup and fitment of your gear. You may be able to get something cheaper online but they don’t put help like Alex or Ben in the box!"

"The rEvo training from Ben Lair was fantastic! Thanks to his hard work and commitment to a couple of land lubbers, we got to experience Truk! The first two pictures led to the last 2!"

"I highly recommend this shop for any gear, but especially custom wings! The prices are great and I have bought 2 custom wings from them and both have been sent to Halcyon within a day. All shipping on their products coming directly from them is very fast and they have always included some free stickers as well as t-shirts all times I’ve ordered, which shows they want to make the customer happy with a little surprise and go the extra mile. They are very responsive by email as well and great to deal with. The shipping, customer service, and product price/selection is great! If I were in AZ I’d not hesitate to dive with them."

"Amazing experience with Paragon dive store. Purchased Dive Rite harness and received the item to Hawaii quickly. Item was packaged properly and professionally. I will definitely reorder here in the future and tell my dive friends about the experience ordering from Paragon. They also supports Military which is great!!!! AAAA++++ all around."
