Everyone at PCH Scuba are absolutely incredible people. Extremely professional training focusing on safety and skills. Highly recommended.

Cool shop/instructors! Whole trip (fees, tip, food) costs under 600$! Could be about 100$ less if you don't eat at the expensive places in Catalina. Who h aren't worth it tbh.

Absolutely incredible experience and excellent instructors! Had a great time getting my Open Water certification and highly recommend PCH Scuba to anyone interested in diving.

You will not regret getting your Scuba, Open Diver, Rescue, ANY SCUBA diving certificate at PCH Scuba. The instructors are all amazing! They are truly a family, and when you graduate you become their family too. Once you are certified, they will invite you to do amazing local dives, and they do international dives to some of the best diving places in the world! The instructors are so honest with you. They never let you go into a dive if you are not 100% ready. I had many ups and down during my certification and I was able to get through them all. I will continue to go to PCH scuba for all my gear, and future dives. Words to the wise: 1. do not sign up for this course if you are not a strong swimmer...200 yards is a lot longer when you're swimming than just walking! 2. If you have any semblance of a cold or sinus infection, push out your weekends far enough to ensure you're ok. 3. Pack SUPER light when you go to Catalina! You will have to walk from the ferry, to the hotel, and from the hotel to the dive park all with your scuba gear bag (minus tank). You do not need to bring any food, there is a VONS on the island, it is much easier just to get stuff there. Trust me. Thank you PCH Scuba! See you soon!

An incredible experience I will never forget thanks to PCH Scuba.

Brett and team are awesome. Super detailed and thorough. No one in our group felt unsafe at any point in our dives.

PCH Scuba really goes above and beyond to ensure you learn the material, and that you are safe and confident in every aspect of the PADI Certification process. They worked with our schedules, provided excellent instruction and really made us feel like part of a family. Many thanks to Bret, Amy, Nikki, Joe, Chad, Peter and the rest of the gang for such an amazing experience. We had Amy in the classroom where she was clear and concise imparting tidbits for remembering important details and preparing us for the written quiz. Nikki was our instructor in the pool and ocean, she made sure to communicate clearly and took her time with us to give us the best possible experience in and out of the water. Knowing that they aren't just there to sell gear, helped confirm this was the right place for us to learn. I look forward to other group dives PCH Scuba has that we can participate in.

My kids loved every minute of this experience. Professional, Fun, and Safe!

Really recommendable experience,good instructors and good gear.

They are patient and allow us to take additional classes if we need extra work at no additional charge.
