WHAT WILL I LEARN DURING THE SPEARFISHING COURSE WITH DXDIVERS?
This DXDiver spearfishing course was created for you to learn what to shoot, how to shoot and when. There is no formal self-study required, nor is there a certification card issued at the end of the course. We recommend the spearfishing course if you’re just getting into the sport and want instruction for hunting or if you want an expert’s advice. You’ll be diving with Charles Kiss, DXDiver’s Course Director and experienced spearo. This course is designed for scuba divers.

Glad you asked! Here at DXDivers, we’re proud to have an all encompassing facility and dive boat to provide a convenient and relaxing scuba experience. We have a full retail store equipped with over 100 diving brands and over 3000 unique products. On-site, we also have a training pool out back and several classrooms upstairs. Once you’re certified, check out our drive-thru tank fill station so you don’t have to lug your tanks through the store. Best of all, you can hop on our 46’ Newton custom dive boat, the Lady Go Diver, docked less than a mile from the shop. Did we mention we’re the only dive shop in South Florida to have both a full retail dive shop and our own charter boat? We manage every aspect of our operation to better serve you and provide the best possible diving experience.
