How Much Does It Cost To Get Scuba Certified?

Private Certification for 1

Private cetification classes are for the people that wish to have 1-on-1 interaction. This is the best way to learn, because I can focus on what you need to work on.

$600 per person
Includes all of the elements of a regularly scheduled class, but on a more relaxed or accelerated level (your choice).

Private Certification for 2

A private course (as above) for 2 people.

$525 per person

Private Group Certification for 3 or more

A few people who want to learn to dive get together and start a course with me (a minimum of three students and maximum of eight.) You lower the cost by putting together the group of 3 or more people in your class.

$450 per person

Upon completion any of the above private certification courses you will be required to supply two passport-size photos, one for your certification card and one for my files. Payment Policy: A $150 deposit is due in advance of the first class to reserve my time. The balance is due in full at the end of the first class session. Please make your checks payable to Robin Burr.
