ABOUT US

WE LOVE SCUBA DIVING

AND THINK YOU WILL TOO!

We don’t need a reason to go diving, we need a reason NOT to go. But, to convince you, let us just say that there is absolutely nothing like scuba diving in this world and that it is absolutely the best thing there is. At least that is what we think and therefore we want to go diving as much as possible. But in case you need some reasons here are a few:

It's different every time you go, everywhere you go!
70% of the world is covered with water, explore the rest of it.
It is the most peaceful place to be
Always great company

I had the pleasure of working with YAY Scuba in my pursuit of getting my PADI Open Water Certification. Thor is a top-notch instructor; he is passionate about diving and is very personable. If you want to learn how to scuba dive, he is your guy. I would recommend him to anyone at any level of diving experience.

OUR TEAM

Each member of our friendly team is proud of working with us and has a long-term diving experience. We simply love to be in the water and we hope that we can get you as excited about diving as we are. We look forward to see you in the water with us.

Our philosophy is smaller class sizes allowing us to give more one-on-one time with individual divers. The individual attention allows us to produce the best, most competent diver possible. Classes are limited to few students at all levels.
