We had a great experience with our sons dive certification! His instructor did an excellent job with him! The staff are professional and helpful with questions and advice! We will definitely be returning to Dive Pros for our dive needs and classes! We would recommend!

The name says it all, Dive Pros They have a wonderful, knowledgeable and friendly staff and the best equipment around the Pensacola area. If you are interested in dive instruction, you dont need to look anywhere else!-My only regret is I didnt take scuba sooner!I will definitely be going back for all my future training.

Definitely the best dive shop in town. Knowledgeable, friendly staff. On-site, heated pool. Carries many top-end brands including Scubapro and Aqualung. Low prices. Its got all the quality youre looking for in a scuba shop.

Awesome dive shop and everybody was super helpful! Had a weird situation getting some gear returned (my fault not theirs) and they were awesome on getting me squared away, cannot recommend these guys enough!

First time back in the dive shop in a long time. The facility looks great. The retail shop is very clean and organized. They have a great equipment rental and service area as well as a full service scuba tank filling station. The fully enclosed onsite pool training area is awesome. They have a seperate classroom area as well for the academic training sessions. They are conveniently located on Hwy 98, in Pensacola. Great dive shop with knowledgeable staff who have been in the area for a long time. They know the diving in the area and can help with recommendations on many topics as well as local dive spots and dive charters. If your coming to the Pensacola area for recreational or tech diving and need dive shop support give the pros at Dives Pros a call. If your knew to diving or you want to learn to dive they have a great training program, from beginners to more advanced diving.

So far, the best dive shop i have found in Florida. Great prices on all the gear

Mason was our instructor for the course. We spent 3 nights in their pool at the shop that and 3 days at fort Pickens diving to complete our open water certification. Mason was a great instructor! He was very knowledgeable and made the classes fun and also very flexible. It was great working with him to get this completed and just a ton of fun. Would highly recommend dive pros. There equipment is good, courses are very reasonably priced, great instructors, and gave overall great experiences to get open water certified!

If you are looking to explore the ocean then I can’t recommend Mason and Rachel at Dive Pros enough! The open water certification class I took was more fun than I can even begin to describe! From the moment we arrived to class they made us feel welcome and really could read the vibe of the class. Our group was a blast and everyone seemed to be laughing every chance they had. We saw so many unique and cool creatures under the water. I can’t say this enough but I believe diving is something everyone should at least try. I waited so long to dive and now I wish I could just go back in time and get certified sooner. I can say that I learned knowledge at Dive Pros that will make me a great diver one day. You leave with the confidence that you know how to survive if something happens, keep calm and remember the steps. Oof can’t wait to be back in the water 🤿 Mason and Rachel are incredible divers and incredible people. If you end up in one of their classes be rest assured they have your back 👌

I always purchase my giving equipment from Dive Pros and never online! These are good people and are always willing to go the extra mile. They always make my needs a priority and if they dont have exactly what I need they will gladly order it. They also do a lot for the community. Like the underwater pumpkin carving contest were the proceeds go to breast cancer research! Love these folks.

Extremely knowledgeable, very professional, helpful and friendly.

The staff are super awesome and very friendly

Higley recommend stopping by and checking out for yourselves. My husband and I certified here. We bought our equipment from here, and when we have the opportunity to come home and do some local diving we rent out tanks as well. The staff is Awesome. They answere your questions. If they dont know the answer they tell you they dont know and get back to you with the answer. The owner is oh so helpful no pressure to buye anything. The instructors are great our instructor was Robert, cool cat!!.

Awesome spot. I travel farther and pass another dive spot to get there.

Place is an awesome dive shop with helpful staff. They had a new product from aqualung that gave me a few problems off the bat and they went above and beyond to help me out. I suggest giving this place a visit for sure

Wonderful place to do business! My wife and I took our Open Water dive class here and feel very comfortable and confident in what we learned. The dive shop is competitively priced, with a great selection and helpful employees. The dive community that surrounds this shop is top notch and very inclusive to beginners. Look forward to using Dive Pros for all our dive needs in the future!

Best place to rent a pontoon or any other water recreation..best price we could find for the area..the staff was awesome!!Great location on the bay..about a mile from 3 sisters..very nice view and sooo beautiful..saw manatees which was our goalThe pontoon we rented was in great working order which allowed us to have a great day on the water.will definitely be back..thank yall for a great time..

Always friendly and helpful. Always recommend what you need for your purpose vs trying to upsell you. I really cant say enough good things about this dive shop

As a former dive shop co-owner and assistant instructor I was careful choosing a shop for a friend’s certification and was very pleased with the thoroughness, safety and pleasure of the entire experience. The instructor was kind, caring and experienced and made sure everyone felt comfortable and satisfied. No high pressure on sales or classes.

Excellent dive shop with very knowledgeable staff! This is your one stop shop for all your dive needs and gears and even classes!

My favorite dive shop of all time! The staff are incredibly kind and knowledgable. They offer several dive/snorkel trips throughout the year as well. The have high-end products and classes available.

Was a truly amazing experience!! Was nervous about the in water portion but slim made me feel confident and comfortable with the whole process!! Everyone was amazing from the shop to the instructor!! HIGHLY RECOMMEND!! Bringing my son and brother here for their certification

This is BY FAR, the best dive shop on the Gulf Coast. I am a local and I can honestly say that they have the most professional employees, the nicest facility and the most amazing attitudes! Most importantly, Dive Pros cares greatly about the community and our beaches. They are environmentally friendly and they care about your safety! I would recommend them to anyone of all diving levels and ages!

Great place. Got nice flippers and also great place to take classes on different levels of diving.

DivePros gave my wife and myself a very professional and thorough dive lesson. We are both in our mid 60’s and were treated very well. The gear is top notch and our instructor, Michael Watkins, was awesome. He worked with everyone until each and every one of us was confident and sure of ourselves in diving safely. Every employee went out of their way to ensure we were happy and satisfied with our experience. The owner, Kerry Freeland, especially helped me with a traveling fin choice that really worked for me. I had to order them, but in the mean time, Kerry allowed me to use his personal fins through the course ( pool and open water dives) until my fins arrived. I felt very much like I was amongst friends.

Excellent staff.

Great service and friendly staff.

Always a pleasure to go here! The staff is super friendly and knowledgeable. My only problem is I want everything! Lol Anyways, if youre in the area stop by and check them out!

Great service, selection of the top products and experts in training and instruction. Highly recommended!

These guys are AWESOME!!!! The teacher was very patient and professional. The staff there has helped me pick out the best gear for an enjoyable experience. I really appreciate them all.

Awesome place, good deals on equipment and the the pool was great

Great folks. Great prices. No bs. I drive an hour to use them rather then use the dive shop in mobile.

I have gone here many times. They have always been patient and works with my hectic schedule. There gear is very affordable and top notch. My wife and I have since moved away. But we still come here even though its an 8 hour drive to get to them. They are the best. Thank you.

Great store always helpful

Dive Pros of Pensacola welcomes everyone no matter if you had training at another facility or it is your first time to even think about diving. They make you feel very comfortable and take the time to talk to you and show you options. I Highly recommend them to everyone and anyone even thinking of getting into diving.

Dive prose is amazing the experience the people have there is impeccable. Their prices are very compatible.

Fantastic experience!

A few months ago I bought an engagement ring from Jared (keep reading for relevance). I told the saleswoman my budget, and the first ring she showed me was almost twice the number I told her. That really bothered me. My experience at Dive Pros was what ring shopping should have been. I worked with Curtis to determine a budget, then find gear to stay within my budget. He was VERY conscious of my budget and worked hard to stay within it.I was certified and bought 100% of my gear through Dive Pros, and unless I move... they will be the only dive shop I ever trust.

Great staff

Great course with lots of good useful information. Look forward to taking more courses with Dive Pros.

Very good dive boat and crew. The dive master worked with a novice couple and was extremely helpful. Lots of water, snacks and fruit provided. For a nominal fee we had the tanks delivered to the dock. Was well worth it since we were not staying in the Pensacola areas. Will definitely dive with them again!

Five star place! Excellent instruction for adults and kids. They even tailored a personal class to teach my family how to spearfish! They have great equipment at reasonable prices. They dont push to sell you things and in fact will direct you to a less expensive item if they feel that it would better suit your needs. I have shopped at and received instruction from the other shops in Pensacola. Dive Pros surpasses them on all fronts.

Friendly, professional and the reason I’m now looking forward to making diving a regular activity.I recently took the Open Water class at DivePros, taught by Jamie, and would recommend it to anyone looking to try SCUBA for the first time. From the classroom lessons to the pool training and then out to Vortex Springs for the final two days of dives, the training I received from Dive Pros was first class. I went into this knowing absolutely nothing about diving but am confident now that I can safely set up equipment, plan a dive and have a blast underwater (with a dive buddy of course).As for the staff and the shop, you won’t find a better place to get fitted for gear or just learn a bit about the area. Dive Pros allowed me to test gear before purchasing it, special-ordered a wet suit for me, and was more than happy to give tips and suggestions about the local area before for my first dive. The staff goes above and beyond to ensure you’ll be prepared to safely and confidently enjoy this hobby.My only regret is that I didn’t do this sooner. These guys are awesome and I’ll be signing up for their Advanced Open Water course as soon as I can fit it in my schedule.

A few years ago I got certified at Dive Pros, being new to the whole experience I was a bit nervous. The employees were super helpful in answering all of my questions regarding prices and patient with me during class( its a plus that their pool is heated). Id highly recommend making this your dive shop, from beginner to an experienced diver. Dive Pros makes you feel like youre a part of their family.

Great staff. Very helpful! Fixed my bcd in minutes! (after Ive struggled with other shops for weeks now on it)Excellent price on weight!!! Good price all around. Just and all around great place!

Cannot recommend this dive shop enough! I recently got certified with Dive Pros and had a great experience! I was nervous about diving, but our instructor was very patient and made sure we had plenty of practice with each skill. The staff is also very knowledgeable and friendly, and made purchasing gear a breeze.

Very knowledgeable staffs. Make sure you listen to their recommendation when it comes to the rental gears specially the wetsuit thickness. They work with charter boats for the scuba diving trips. Well maintained rental gears and variety of scuba and related gears for sale in stock. Will come back here again for a future scuba trip.

Dive Pros lives up to their name. I just certified OW with them and was very happy with my experience. Their professionalism and customer service (everything from help with gear selection, to their instructors and other dive masters) was great. The atmosphere was good for learning, they teach you the skills, make sure you know your stuff and have fun doing it. If you are considering diving then you should seriously consider Dive Pros.

Couldnt be happier with my experience here. The education, prices, facilities, service, etc. they provide are 10/10. Took a class with Slim here and had a blast, learned a lot and gained confidence in my diving ability. Id recommend Dive Pros to anybody I wish I could give it more than 5 stars.

I have been diving for a better part of 13 years now. Of all the dive shops I have come across, this one is by far the best. I turned in my regulators to be worked on as well as my tanks to have their inspections completed. The staff was extremely professional and explained everything they did in detail and answered all questions I had. All work was done quickly and I received a call from the shop as soon as the gear was ready. To top it off, they have the best prices in town. I would highly recommend Dive Pros to ANYBODY that is looking for gear, classes or any information about diving, was truly a great experience.

Kevin and the crew have years of experience and great equipment. Ive enjoyed teaching thru their shop and look forward to many more years doing so. They are the only dive shop in Pensacola with an on site pool (now indoor!). Highly recommended.Slim

Dive Pros is top notch. My friends and I use to use another local dive shop until we happened to run across these guys. Weve never been back to any other local shop since then. The quality of service and helpfulness from the crew at Dive Pros is beyond great! We are customers for life.

Super helpful and motivated.

These guys are the greatest. All are experienced divers and most are instructors as well. They will answer every question you no matter how new you are. They are my go to for training, gear, and local diving events.

I was looking for help with an old BC my daughter had been given. They help us realize it was beyond its service life and was none repairable. They saved us from wasting good dollars on a old worn out piece of safety equipment. She was not interested the new bright green BCs and they helped her find one quickly online that fit her fashion taste. They were so patient and friendly with us. I thought the prices were very fair and reasonable. I would totally go back for future support for my snorkeling or dive gear needs.

Dive Pros is hands down the best shop on the gulf coast, staff is very knowledgeable and friendly, took basic open water and advanced with instructor Gary Toms, excellent teacher that cares about his students. Have purchased all my gear here with the help of the dive pros staff, and always been very happy with my purchase. Keep up the good work...

Definitely professional and not sales-y. I love this one. Very knowledgeable people. Good gear.

Professional, Knowledgeable and very accommodating Dive center. Excellent instruction and scuba gear Techs.My local go to shop in the Flora/Bama area.

Great customer services and very reputable business. My boyfriend and I did our open water certification here. We got discounts on gear and aparell in the shop just for doing the class through them. Their pool training is very legit, and they make sure you feel comfortable and safe. I would recommend them for any PADI class or for equipment rentals or scuba gear!

Always a great time with you guys!

The best Pensacola area dive shop. The staff went out of their way to help me and my group with tank rentals. Very helpful and knowledgeable about local dive sites.

The best

Just finished my open water cert + Nitrox. This place is 5 star all the way. Excellent instruction and guidance by our instructor Slim. They have a beautiful pool on site, great gear, well stocked shop full of reasonably priced gear (they will match online prices, so support your local dive shop), they are professional, friendly, helpful and passionate about what they do. They are knowledgable on and actively promoting local artificial reef installations. They know the panhandle well and love to get people safely in the water. I am so glad my partner and I now have them as a resource. Looking forward to many group trips with them in the future!

Best dive shop in Pensacola in my opinion. Amazing customer service and relation. I bought a brand new BCD from them and the buckle was defective. They immediately sent it out and offered to let me use a rental BCD for any dive until mine came back from the manufacturer. They are incredibly helpful and not pushy to buy their gear. I will be a life long customer.Update: Two years into diving and I continue to come here. Amazing staff, prices, and gear selection. They have a vast amount of knowledge and are always helpful with giving you the best gear for what you need.

Got what you need. Everything is priced the same as any other dive shop, but they have a 5% discount for military. Very helpful and friendly staff too

Knowledgable friendly personal. Been going there for many years. Plus a heated on sight enclosed pool for students or to try your gear before buying. Check them out.

Great shop a very friendly and knowledgeable staff. Whether a first timer or a diving veteran would highly recommend a visit.

Don’t try to oversell you, super friendly and knowledgeable. Great shop.

They have excellent trainers and customer service to get you started!

Went in looking for advice on gear and training. I forget the guys name but he spent a lot of time with me explaining everything from the class to the dives and went very in depth on gear. Im gojng back soon to get certified. Definately will be with these guys!

Thank yall so much for your help . And thank you for being so nice to my 2 year old ( who thought she owned the shop ) . I will for sure be back. Great service, very nice people, and a great selection!

What can I say about dive Pros well after driving for 10 years with dive Pros and meeting all the people of dive Pros,. I can tell you this they are Simply the Best in the business.....

Great prices, and great helpful workers!

Nice people,dripped of our tanks and will be diving with them soon!
