Company description The Scuba School
Southern Skin Divers Supply is older than any of the certification agencies in the world. PADI, NAUI, SSI, IDEA, YMCA, SDI, & TDI all use training techniques developed and pioneered by Southern. The certification agencies do two things for Scuba Schools; they print the books that we use, and they make the plastic cards that we issue. All training is done by SOUTHERN SKIN DIVER SUPPLY.
Right now we are offering executive scuba classes to our beginning dive students at no additional charge.
Private to semi- private lessons
Onsite indoor heated pool
We have full time instructors who are the owners; the 4 owners have been certified over 90 years and can answer all diving training requirements with experienced answers. We have over 10,000 dives amongst us and are experienced in treasure hunting, fossil hunting, cold water, photography, spear-fishing and tropical diving.
The Scuba School has been training longer than any other in the country and has made more divers than any school in Alabama.
Class is designed for any students even those with limited recreational time. We teach slow and thorough instead of fast and sloppy. Our new divers are much better divers than most new divers; at least that is what the boat captains and resorts tell us.
Our Scuba School has the best safety record in the United States. None of our students or divers have ever been hurt on any checkout trip or escorted trip in our 50-year history.
All of our Executive students become Passport Club members and get a lifetime parts warranty on their life support equipment, discounts on trips, and lifetime use of the pool with free air. The executive training program requires purchase of life support equipment at student discount prices from the scuba school. We are the Aqua-Lung dealer for this area. Aqua-Lung is the #1 manufacturer of scuba equipment in the world.
Location description: SOUTH CAROLINA
On a regular basis, we all take a trip to South Carolina to renew some old friendships with some heavy duty diver friends in that area. We take our deck boat and have
some friends show us some of their favorite places to find fossils and giant sharks teeth. In the dinosaur times, sharks were up to 100 feet long and some of their teeth are over 5 inches long and can be quite rare to the collector.
In the past, we`ve found sharks teeth, a giant sloth tooth, teeth from camels and bison, and lots of petrified wood. Most people that go looking for sharks teeth are lucky to find one, we found over 200 total. This was quite a haul. Also, we get to dive in a beautiful area.
Panama City, Florida - Spearfishing Trip
This trip is scheduled for the best time of year to get Flounder. It is common to see several touching each other from late November until early December. Whatever we catch, we will take to the Captain`s Table restaurant in St. Andrews and have them prepare it for the group. The Passport member price of $395 includes 2 days of offshore spearfishing and 2 nights in a hotel (double occ.).
RETURN TO HAWAII
In Hawaii right now it is perfect on land and in the water. Hawaii is just another word for perfect. Beautiful water, great diving with turtles, manta rays, sea shells, eels, colorful rare fish, no hurricanes, no passports needed, no stomach problems, no bugs, two 14,000 ft. tall mountains, active volcano with lava flowing into the sea, safe location, English language (well pidgin anyway), surfing, low prices. You know Hawaii sounds so good and we haven`t been there in a while, so why don`t we just go back as soon as we can...
