Who are we?
-
We are very active scuba, cave and
technical divers in Orlando and Central Florida, diving every day of
the week. This is a full time occupation (and we enjoy it) for the key
instructors at Dayo Scuba. We still dive for
fun and are actively involved in exploration projects. Scheduling your class is
often based around your plans, not
some pre-determined class schedule. Don't let our calendar mislead you
as to availability of classes.
-
We are scuba trainers first, not a scuba retailer. We will not try to sell
you gear for your basic open water class. We supply ALL your gear for the basic
class. After class, once better educated and experienced with dive gear,
we'll be happy to help you purchase your own gear (ie: mask, fins,
wetsuits, regulators, BCDs, etc...).
-
We sometimes we have large classes
(small is normal), but we always have multiple instructors, assistant
instructors and divemasters present to insure quality hands on
training and safety. Our
training is done at a local pool, lakes, springs and oceans.
-
We do the classes seven days a week. Weekday classes
are the best since the dive sites are not crowded, but we still do the
weekends for anyone that has to work weekdays.
-
What about diving with us after certification?
You don't have to, but we invite all our alumni to come back and just
dive for fun when we do our trips and most classes. You can even use
our gear at a reduced price ($25). Mentoring is a great method of training we can't always
do, but your time allowing, we prefer to mentor our students into
developing better buoyancy and general diving skills, and by returning
to dive with us, we get that chance.
-
We don't fail our students. If you need more
time to finish, it won't cost you any more than the extra cost of the dive sites fees (if any). Local or not, you can jump
into another class when you are ready. The vast majority of
students get through the courses just fine, but we have a few that
simply need more time or just had a bad day clearing their ears. Most
of those students that needed extra time, come back and finish and now
dive regularly.
-
So what do the people we have trained
say about us? Student Comments
-
Got questions about anything related to dive
training? We will talk to you. Please
call 321-662-3090 if out of state). Email is info@dayo.com.
Email us anytime of course. We are prompt in responding to email. You
can also register and post questions on our own forum.
-
We offer recreational dive certifications
from multiple agencies. Each is only slightly different in training, but
you still get the best quality training possible. They are four of
the top agencies in the world, and all recognized world wide. The
agencies are SDI,
NAUI and
IANTD. We
do Open Water Referrals from all major agencies. Technical
certifications are from
TDI (the world's leader in technical
dive certifications), NAUI
Tec and
IANDT. Cavern & Cave
certifications are from
TDI,
