The Scuba Company

I've always wanted to learn to scuba dive, and finally was able to do so.They trained me, sold me what I needed without pressure or manipulation and were great with a free Discovery Dive with my minor child.I am now open water certified and will certainly continue with these patient and capable folks!

I suspect that anyone wanting to learn how to scuba dive is also looking for experienced, knowledgeable, and supportive dive instructors who have taught countless students with different styles of learning. If you're wanting to learn how to dive, then you'll want to know about the staff at The Scuba Company!Everyone I've met and worked with at The Scuba Company is professional, highly skilled, safety conscious, and personable. Yas Fuentes and Blayne Huss are the owners of The Scuba Company and welcome the opportunity to speak with those interested in learning to become certified divers or are already certified and looking to pursue advanced dive specialties. Bottom line - they are ready to share the wonder and fun of diving with those of us seeking to learn and explore!Despite an anxiety level rivaling Mount Everest, I was able to earn my PADI Open Water certification this past weekend with guidance and support from Blayne Huss and his wife, Jamie. I am eternally grateful for their support and understanding! Today, I went to the shop where I spent time getting expert advice and assistance from KT, Cara, Yas, and Blayne. There's always something to be learned about diving, and The Scuba Company team is ready and willing to help!There's so much to like about The Scuba Company and the people who staff it. They've earned my loyalty and trust. In fact, I'm now taking the Advanced Open Water certification course with them. Thanks so much, Scuba Company, for all your time and help on my journey to becoming a diver!

This is the best dive shop in the area! The gear is very well maintained, the staff are super friendly and professional, and the diving instructors are so experienced! Diving in the Blue Hole was so much fun! The wetsuit keeps you warm, and they decorated the bottom of the Hole for Halloween. I can't wait to take more classes!

just nowAmazing people and so much fun diving with Rebecca D. for my open waters at Blue Hole.I was pushed around by another shop that stole my money and the manager at The Scuba Company gave me a great deal told me not to stress cause scuba is supposed to be fun. 10/10 would recommended. Great shop genuinely good people

It depends on who is in there depends on the service you receive. The shop does not have a lot of options or gear. I would think for diving in NM they would have warmer gear. Not a lot of gear for women. I am sure you can order gear but I can do that online also. It's okay in there.

Sorry but I'm not a fan. This is actually the first time I will write such a bad review, but my story tells it all. Poor customer service and poor communication. I took them my gear for repair months ago. Finally called them 2 mo later to get a status update (I mean come on, you can't call the customer?). So my gear is old and the can't fix the BCD but think they might be able to find a part for my old regulator. Months go buy (and I even forget they have my gear). I stop by to ask the status, figuring its likely done. Well it's not! The guy still hasn't found the part at his house to fix it, ugh more waiting. Finally got a call that it was fixed, yay! Dropped the gear off in early spring and just now got is back. I will never use this place again!

Best dive shop and scuba travel center in NM. Their customer service is great with highly knowledgeable staff, and terrific instructors. The selection of gear is of the highest quality brands, and prices for both equipment and services are reasonable.

I went with my kiddo and my friend and we had the BEST experience. We had a difficult schedule and a deadline to be certified by and they went above and beyond to make it work for us. They're knowledgeable and supportive without being patronizing or boring- we actually had a such a good time just hanging out in between dives, it made the whole experience twice as great. Can't recommend enough!

This is a great dive shop. Without a doubt the best dive shop in NM. I recommend Scuba Co to people who want to learn how to dive, become a better diver or who want to buy quality equipment. Buying online is tempting but the advice, help and straight talk you'll get here is worth a higher cost, but surprise...they'll match internet prices in most cases, so buy smart...check here first.I'm a professional diver and have been diving all around the globe and finding a shop this good, in mostly dry NM, is amazing.I've used this shop for more than 20 years and the dramatic improvements done over the last 5 years are among the reasons I keep coming back. With nearly 2,000 dives, I'm still learning and very passionate about diving. And I consider this shop a resource; whether you're brand new to the sport or have barnacles and gills like I do, you'll get help and good advice.For some reason, a lot of the shops I've been to in my travels may have gear and training... but they don't have 'friendly'. You know...that inviting feeling you get when you walk through the door. This is why this shop gets the 5th star in my rating. You'll make friends here.Well done, Scuba Co. and thanks for doing it right!Ed VaillancourtPADI Divemaster

This is by far the best scuba shop in NM. Wonderful friendly and knowledgeable staff, and the instructors are the very best! I dove for 10 years until 1993. They recertified me and I even got my Advanced Open Water Certification in 2 weeks. Great classes and very thorough. Made me feel very comfortable and I rediscovered my love for diving Now that my kids are grownup
