USS Oriskany

Picture yourself; suspended 60 feet under the sea... no cares or worries, even the laws of gravity have lost their hold. Your suspended in a liquid atmosphere that is teaming with life. You wonder, as you hover weightless in the water, is the real or am I dreaming? Right then a giant sea turtle nudges you from behind and you realize... This is for real... You are a diver...

Viking Diving - YMCA SCUBA offers the most extensive diver training on the entire Gulf Coast. Certainly, our dive courses are longer than what is offered through local dive shops, but our focus is not on just selling you a bunch of gear. We have prided ourselves on making sure that every student gets the knowledge and skills to be a safe and confident diver. 60 feet underwater is not the place to find out that you didn't get the proper training.
