Ocean Dive Evaluation

While ocean dives are required for certification, they are not considered training. They are evaluations of your skills and are viewed and staffed differently.
A Total of 4 SCUBA Dives are required.
These dives can be completed on our weekend beach dives, out on a dive boat or diving the underwater park in Avalon, Catalina
Our beach dives focus on getting divers comfortable with how to properly handle our California surf
- We also include our exclusive surf training workshop (beach diving only)
- Beach Dives will have a fee of $60 per day and will include basic scuba equipment not owned by the student.
- This will also include Instructor time and well as the cost of any additional staff required.

Our Goals

At Ocean Gear, we give our divers the training to be the safest divers in the ocean!
Our divers will be trained to Explore around the world in conditions similar to those they are accustomed to or better!
