I have always loved the water and have somewhat enjoyed snorkeling. I was interested in scuba but about three years ago I injured my back & had to have surgery so I didn’t know if it would be right for me. I kept tossing the idea around in my head and finally decided to give a scuba shop, any scuba shop, a call. Luckily I called SSA!!! Right from the beginning they were nothing but friendly & helpful. They answered all my questions & put my mind at ease. The initial “coaching session” was very informative and I liked the idea that instead of only giving a few classes & sending me off on my own they would take as long with me as I needed and I could repeat the classes if I wanted until I was comfortable getting into the water on my own. As it turned out I got to try on the gear and go on scuba that same day in their pool. It was a great feeling & since then I’ve been hooked. I have had a wonderful time going on various trips with them, I’ve seen things & done things I never imagined possible or even knew existed & have developed some great new friendships. Did I forget to mention they have a pretty awesome dive shop! Way bigger than others I’ve seen with the latest cool gadgets & toys. I don’t think this is how they have managed to stay in business for over 20 years or why they have reached the level of success they have. I believe it is because they treat their customers like friends and have a commitment to excellence unsurpassed by all.
