I hadn't used it until November 27th to test in pool for drysuit instructor class. After my pool session the feet were full of water. I tested the suit again on December 3rd and the feet were full of water again. I tried calling the Aqualung customer service number 5 times and spent hours on hold. Then I used the dive shop selection from the automated line and they told me I needed to go through the dive shop. I have filed a warranty claim through the dive shop and Aqua Lung hast not responded. It has been months of trying to engage with Aqua Lung. It feels like the company is waiting for the warranty to expire. I will never recommend Aqua Lung to my scuba diving students.

I had called ahead to make sure (because not all dive shops are treated equal) and they confirmed they did. When I entered I realized that this was definitely a full service scuba center, not just a shop with a few items here and there; they had a full selection of gear, a large pool and learning center, a very nice large changing room, etc etc., basically everything you could ask for from a dive shop/center. I don't live locally to the area, but happy I stopped and I'm armed w knowledge for the future, and to share here, that they'll take care of you with friendly and professional service.

And he went in the back and brought out a pair of green kid goggles. Places where people go out of their way for something small like this are exactly the type of places that deserve good reviews and good business!

I completed the Open Water Certification with Scuba Center Temecula. The entire experience was…read morespectacular. Starting with getting registered by Alex Milan (there are two Alexes). He explained everything clearly. After completing the online classes (which I learned later did a great job of teaching the basics although somewhat boring) which is a PADI requirement (don't blame Scuba Center Temecula), I went on my first dive using SCUBA gear. It was in a swimming pool, so not the most amazing thing, but getting to use the equipment and breathing underwater for the first time was an amazing experience. The pool training was long, but Alex Visselli (our dive instructor) made it fun and interesting. Most of the time, we were able to complete the "tasks" on the first try. When we did not get it perfect, Alex V gave us the sign for redo and we did it again. He would always show us how to do it again before we tried it the second time. He had a lot of patience. Although it was a long day, and only going to a depth of 8 feet, it was probably the greatest day of education I have ever had. The next week was at Lake Perris. We saw a couple of fish, but since the day was really more about training in calm open water, that was just a bonus. Once again, Alex V explained everything we were going to do before we went in the water. Then, in the water, we practiced all of the skills we would need for the open water ocean dive, and a lot of skills we will hopefully never need. Removing the weights and putting them back in was incredibly difficult for me, but I was able to do it much better in the lake. Finally, we took the boat to Avalon and walked over to the Casino Dive Park (the equipment was taken by taxi). We did a couple more skill exercises and then explored. At this point Alex V became more of a tour guide than an instructor, although we still had issues here and there which Alex V helped us with. After getting out and having the air cylinders refilled, we went back in the water for pure exploration. Alex V pointed out different fish. The highlight of the second dive was seeing a giant black sea bass. It truly lived up to its name. Alex V was an excellent instructor. He was patient and explained everything clearly, always asking if we had any additional questions. He made sure we had fun, while also making sure we had learned everything and could do it properly. His vast diving experience was a huge asset.

I had the incredible opportunity to take part in the DOD SkillBridge program, training under Lonnie and Malcolm while learning the NAUI way. Both are not only exceptional divers, but also outstanding mentors and genuinely great men. It was a privilege to work alongside them, and I highly recommend taking the time to get to know them and hear their stories--every moment is well worth it. At the end of our internship, another former Navy divemaster and I took a dive trip to Australia to celebrate the close of our military careers and to honor everything we learned through our time with San Diego Divers. The experience left a lasting impact, both professionally and personally.

When she returned she said she actually had 3 different masks she thought would work. When I arrived at the shop she had all 3 on the counter for me to try on. She even gave me tips on how to keep it from fogging up (baby shampoo) and the reason why a solid instead of a clear "gasket" around the face might be preferable (it blocks the light from your eyes, which is especially important if your eyes are sensitive to light.) Not only was their customer service phenomenal, but their prices were reasonable. I told her my price range and all the masks she showed me met my criteria. They even offer guided excursions. I highly recommend this establishment for your scuba and snorkeling needs!
