I was fortunate to have a wonderful dive shop take a personal interest in me when I was a new diver. The owner sat down and talked to me about diving, explained dive equipment and courses. He even let me try out gear in the pool and personally fitted me with gear that fit me and my budget. When I was ready for more gear, he gave me a generous trade in allowance. The staff there is the best and I consider them my dive family. Those experiences set the bar in what I look for in a dive shop.
