​

Massachusetts offers diverse and exciting dive sites! Getting scuba certified in New England opens your opportunities to dive almost anywhere in the world. Why? Due to cooler water temperatures, students will train in a 7mm wetsuit, hood, gloves, and boots—different gear than what is required for warmer climates like the Caribbean. The visibility in New England waters can be also be limiting, providing a great learning opportunity. Learning and understanding underwater navigation is crucial!
