SCUBA Returns!

SCUBA season approaches, and RiverWinds is ready! Our PADI* Open Water SCUBA Certification is back on the calendar, and we're waiting for you!

New to SCUBA? Our classes at the 'Winds are perfect for all levels: our instructor Jim will guide you thru the course in a laid-back, calm environment, where you can work at your own pace. Worried about fees? Let it go! Our low $301 cost includes all rentals! The only additonal fee is during your check out dive, which can be coordinated during class, or, you can opt to complete the check out dive on location while away in a tropical locale!

Typically, certifications begin with an hour-and-a-half orientation scheduled approximately two weeks prior to the start of the course, followed by three consecutive weekend day's of class, consisting of equal amounts of confined diving in the lap pool as well as theory in the classroom. Participants will enter the water on their first class.

Registration is open to the public and participants need no prior SCUBA or snorkeling experience.

Swimming requirements: 10 minute tread/float in deep water, and 200m swim with no time limit. There is a twelve year age minimum, though private lessons available for those ten to eleven.

Our next classes are as follows:
Sunday, Feb 13, 20, 27 - 8am pool/classroom (orientations at your convenience!)

Monday Feb 28 - 7pm orientation
and Saturday, March 12, 19, 26 - 8am pool/classroom

These dates not working into your calendar? No sweat! Give us a call at 856.251.0990 x103 and we'll coordinate a private or small group lesson at no extra cost to you!
SCUBA and RiverWinds...we make a splash!
