Dive WIth Frank

Frank was patient and fantastic with us for our Dry Suit Class.  We left the pool feeling infinitely more confident than when we arrived!  Frank made sure to explain everything clearly and demo before we were asked to do it.  Frank was easy to communicate with to make arrangements and get everything set up for the PADI course.  Thanks Frank!

PADI Drysuit Diver Specialty – Because Shivering Is Overrated

Recently joined Frank for a Zombie Apocalypse Diver specialty and had a great time! Great instructor who adapted the course to the students easily and made sure it was both educational and fun. Would absolutely take a class with him again in the future. The ZAD class itself is worth it for the opportunity to play with bubble ring guns ALONE!

Halloween Zombie Apocalypse Diver

Great trip!
Frank is very knowledgeable and experienced  instructor!
Thanks again!

October 2025 Oyster Dive

Great time as always! This is my second trip with Frank. Well organized and planned. I am looking forward to doing it again next year. 

Frank is an excellent instructor who is very passionate, knowledgeable, and competent. He makes complex topics easily digestible, and so much fun!
