Which dive shop in the K.C. area is right for you?
We'll give you Five Good Reasons to choose Skin n Scuba.

1. Our pool is on site and used
exclusively for scuba training.

We have a 12,000+ sq. ft. facility, featuring 2 classrooms, well equipped service and repair shop, and retail gear showroom. But the biggest difference between us and other dive shops in the area is our 26′x52′ saltwater pool — on site. We’re serious about dive training, so we make it easy!

It’s all in house and under one roof. That means a 60 second walk from the classroom to the pool — instead of traveling across town to share a public or “Y” pool.

2. The highest rating from the top
dive organization in the world.

PADI is the largest diving certification organization — recognized by more resorts and dive operations around the world. With the best training materials and curriculum, PADI trains more divers worldwide than all the other agencies put together.

We’ve achieved the rating of PADI 5 Star Dive Center. We offer every level of training including: basic entry level courses, intermediate courses, and advanced training that all the way up to the highest levels of Deep Tec, Trimix, and Instructor development.

3. The best inventory of gear and the
expertise to gear you up right.

Our dive store is staffed with friendly, knowledgeable, experienced divers who know gear and fit.

We’ve got the inventory to take care of you with new and used equipment for sale, as well as the best rental and training gear. We’re committed to match or beat any other stores’ regular pricing, but more importantly, we’ll follow through with unparalleled customer service, including returns, maintenance and repair, even trade-ins later when you’re ready to upgrade to new gear.

4. A great group of divers call Skin n Scuba
"base camp" for all their dive training and travel.

You’ll be linked to a great group of divers in the KC area that call Skin-n-Scuba home. They join together often to dive their favorite local spots, plan dive trips to exotic destinations, and just get together to talk diving.

Check out the calendar, then come by the shop or give us a call. If you’re not certified yet, we’ll talk training and get you scheduled for our next class. If you’re a veteran to the underwater world, let’s talk equipment and dive travel.

5. When you're ready to go pro,
we can get you there faster.

Our status as a PADI IDC (Instructor Development Center) means we offer PADI’s full range of professional certifications from DiveMaster to Instructor, to Staff Instructor. We have the qualifications, pool, and classrooms to make continuing education into advanced levels of dive certification a pleasure. Even our Instructor level courses are on-site — few dive shops can offer that.
