All About Us
We Really Love Diving
Established in 1967 (we're not sensitive about our age) The Dive Shop is located in Calgary, AB, nestled amongst the Rocky Mountains. About as land-locked as you can get, but with so many amazing diving opportunities if you know where to go.
We are a PADI Five Star IDC Training Facility, PADI Freediving Training facility, service center, and retail therapy retreat (that last one is a bit of a joke - but not really - we have an awesome selection of gear).
If you're looking for snorkel lessons, to get certified, get into local diving, travel, freediving, or join the dark side as a dive professional - we would be excited to have you join us. Our instructional team is out diving and freediving on the regular (yes, even in wetsuits under ice), and we are lucky to have such knowledgeable people on our team.
We strive to be the shop we would want to hang out at. Our approach is to train our divers to focus on safe diving practices, keep diving, get them into the right gear and be the ultimate enablers for the local water-loving community.

About Our Facility
It's pretty handy having your own pool. Oh, did we not mention that? We have our own on-site training pool. Kept nice and warm, it has a sloping bottom with a small drop-off that makes it perfect for training (and general in-water fun).
What you'll find on our pool deck:
You won't find swimsuits and towels. That's on you.
