There are four things I want to say about Air Hogs Scuba and its owner, Thomas…read more First, if you're the too long; didn't read type, I HIGHLY recommend Air Hogs Scuba for your needs. In Raleigh? Durham? Drive the extra distance. It's worth it. Second, Thomas and Co undoubtedly know their craft. There are experts, and then there are THE experts. I don't have the largest sample size, but of the shops I've visited in NC and FL, Air Hogs Scuba has THE experts in the field. There is not a question I have asked that has not just been answered but answered in-depth with explanations and reasons why. Third, Thomas has been imparted with Forbidden Knowledge only granted by the Goddess of the Deep after your 1,000th dive about regulator service. I brought my regs in for service, fully ready to get a new pair because they kept leaking at the end of a season. Thomas discouraged me from getting new ones, instead explaining why they did that, what I could do to fix it on the fly, and what he could do to tune my regs to be the best they've been. I just finished using them on eight dives of various depths after service, and not only do they not leak or have any issues; they breathe better than any set I've ever used. The only restriction I had breathing was tweaking the flow setting to try to optimize my breathing effort. The work blew me away. And they work on Hog gear, which many shops won't touch. Finally, I want to say Thomas and those at Air Hogs are genuinely lovely people looking out for the diver and not their bottom line. They went out of their way to ensure I got my regs back in time for a dive. I went in to talk about getting a new BC setup, and Thomas encouraged me to dive a new setup first before spending money on it and even offered customizations if I did decide to go with the new setup (plate & wing). I got the impression I would have to convince HIM to sell me one without trying it first! That's just good customer service and good (diver) community service, in my opinion. Again, I HIGHLY recommend Air Hogs Scuba. They are knowledgeable, professional, friendly, and genuinely care about their customers and craft.

Excellent customer service and great place to rent scuba equipment! The friendly employees first…read moreanswered my questions over the phone when I had called to reserve rental scuba equipment. They don't allow reservations, but since they did not have any classes scheduled the weekend I inquired about, they assured they would have adequate supplies and they did! When we arrived to rent the equipment, the employees greeted us right away. They patiently answered our questions and helped us select the right items since it was our first time renting. They clearly explained the cost and tried to save us money rather than talking us into spending more. In addition to rental equipment they sell scuba gear, hold classes, and host events and trips. They have a heated pool on-site and offer private and semi-private classes. Their training agency is SSI (Scuba Schools International). Overall, we had a great experience here and would rent from here again!

My daughter and I had a trip planned that included scuba diving so we went to Gypsy Divers to get…read morecertified. I was never able to get open water certification because of the pressure on my ears but Mike Welch was incredibly patient and others in the shop had numerous suggestions for me to try. Ultimately I gave up after numerous attempts and got a full refund of the entire tuition even though I had completed the lessons, used their equipment to try and get the outdoor signoff completed, and taken a lot of their time. I would highly recommend the shop if you are wanting to try getting certified and you don't have to worry about losing the large sum of money if you don't make it. I feel like I'm also very comfortable with all of the skills needed but am just held back by my ears! thank you Mike and Gypsy.

Mr. Travieso is extremely kind and patient and made sure that I had a proper understanding before letting me enter the water. I would recommend Sandhills Scuba to everyone in Fayetteville, North Carolina and all around North Carolina. If you are looking to do anything that has to do with Scuba Diving, this is the only school I will recommend. I will most definitely be coming back to Sandhills Scuba as I advance through scuba diving. Thank you Mr. Travieso!

The divemasters that work with them are also wonderful and have been a great addition to our lessons. We enjoyed our open water training so much we decided to immediately follow it with nitrox training. The retail side of the store is a great resource. We have never felt pressured to buy expensive high-end equipment that is outside of our needs. When we have decided to purchase equipment they offered good advice for budget friendly options that will meet our needs. Their military discount is another bonus. I cannot say enough good things about them! I would highly recommend them for diving education or equipment needs!

Her knowledge, experience, and also her encouragements helped me give my very best and allowed me to become more knowledgeable and confident in my diving abilities. I had a few sessions with Chris and learned so much from him as well. Both of them are wonderful people who deeply care about sharing their many years of experience and love for diving. It is contagious! We recently returned from a one-week dive trip to Bonaire organized by Adventures in Scuba with Deb and Chris. It was an awesome trip where my husband and I both got certifications. We dove up to 4 times a day in beautiful waters with everything perfectly organized for us: the lodging, the food and the dives. We made new friends and felt that we were part of a new family. What a blast! I highly recommend Adventures in Scuba! A warm thank you to you both Deb and Chris!
