Very bad choice for getting a scuba certification. DO NOT SIGN UP for any scuba classes and think it will take you less than 5 months to complete. Very difficult to work with when scheduling (both classroom and open water dives) and there is no less than 4-6 weeks between each dive (5 of which is required for certification). Of course they COULD get my dives in sooner if I would either pay an additional fee for a Catalina Trip, or an added $55 for a mid-week class. Completely unprepared with staffing to fulfill obligation of dives to be completed in a reasonable amount of time. This dive shop has little interest in the diver and diver certification and you quickly feel like they only want to sell you more goods (equipment, dive trips and additional instructor fees to complete the ""already paid for"" certification, etc.). Still waiting to hear back from owner. GRADE: D-
