    PADI Dive Shop in Denver Area

    Underwater PhantaSeas in Lakewood (303-988-6725) does a great job with Rescue Diver. That is one of the most fun and rewarding dive classes to take. It is also my favorite to teach!

    Has anyone been to the crater in March?

    I had my group there over this past weekend. All went well. We have 18 new OW divers, 2 new AOW & 1 new ResQ. Water was warm and clear. I talked to the staff guy a bit. They are planning on rebuilding the hot tub, but are in no big hurry. No plans to bring up the old one.

    Moving to Colorado looking for a Dive Shop.

    I second that recommendation for Underwater Phantaseas. If you end up on the west side of side of town the Underwater Phantaseas Lakewood store is just as good and also very laid back.

    A1 or Underwater Phantaseas?

    There are indeed 2 locations. They had the same ownership at one time many years ago. They are now separately owned, but do some cooperative ventures. I teach at the Lakewood store.

    A1 or Underwater Phantaseas?

    Both shops are very good. You can't go wrong with either. Now, so that you know my bias up front, I will tell you that I have been an instructor at UWP for 8 years. I was a customer there for 7 years before that too. I really like the way that the retail staff at UWP gets to know their...
