The DiVE KS Difference Explained

At DiVE KS, we don’t just teach scuba diving, we guide you through a safe, personalized, and unforgettable dive experience. We're a family-run business known for our welcoming vibe, globally recognized expert instruction, and premium scuba diving experiences.
New England's #1 Scuba Training Experience: The DiVE KS Difference
At DiVE KS, we set a higher standard and our divers feel it from day one. We're not here to rush you through a certification checklist. We're here to elevate your entire experience with scuba diving from start to finish.
Safety-First, Always
Safety isn’t a just a bullet point for us, it’s a culture. We prepare our students to be confident and self-aware underwater, ensuring every diver leaves our program truly ready to explore the ocean with skill and confidence.
Why Divers Turn to DiVE KS For The Best Scuba Training in New England
It’s unfortunate, but not all scuba training is created equal. While lower-cost courses might seem appealing at first, they often come at a much greater cost: your safety, your confidence, and your entire dive experience.
Too many divers come to us after feeling rushed, overlooked, unsafe, or completely unprepared at other dive centers. At DiVE KS, we refuse to cut corners. We provide premium, personalized training in small groups, designed to build real confidence, real skills, and true readiness for the water.
Personalized, Premium Instruction
We keep our class sizes intentionally small. That means every student receives more attention, a custom approach tailored to your pace, your comfort, and your goals, increased safety, and a more relaxed learning environment. No overcrowded classes with us.
Flexible Scheduling
We work with your life schedule. Our open-enrollment format means you don’t have to wait for rigid course dates, we train around your availability. Whether you're local to Beverly, driving in from anywhere in New England or flying in from around the world, we make scuba work for you. We partner with world class aquatic facilities around New England so our training can accommodate divers from all over New England.
Top Gear, Trusted Brands
Our divers have access to industry-leading equipment from brands like Mares, Ocean Reef, BARE, Atomic, Hollis, and more. That means comfort, performance, and peace of mind in the water.
Global Group Dive Travel
We don’t stop at training. Our dive community travels the world, from the Caribbean to Southeast Asia, on curated group dive expeditions that blend luxury, adventure, and deep connection. It’s more than diving—it’s a lifestyle.
Global Teaching Impact
Our instructors and teaching philosophies have earned us world-wide recognition. We travel across the world with students who are seeking the highest quality of scuba diving training and safety. We serve as private instructors to divers looking for an extra level in comfort and safety while traveling.
" I came to DiVE KS through a referral program with another dive shop. Experiencing the teaching styles of both shops, DiVE KS come out on top in so many ways! DiVE KS expertise and extensive knowledge about scuba diving were immediately evident, making me feel comfortable and reassured throughout my entire experience. Safety protocols were followed meticulously, creating an environment where I could rest assured that I was safe. Beyond the exceptional diving experience, the friendly and welcoming atmosphere at DiVE KS made me feel like part of a close-knit diving community. I cannot recommend DiVE KS enough. Thank you, for creating such a remarkable dive shop and for sharing your passion for diving with others. You have truly set the bar high for dive shops. "
