SKI/SCUBA Center

SKI/SCUBA CENTER EXPLORING DEEP WATERS FOR 44 YEARS

With one year shy of 45 years in Knoxville, Ski/Scuba Center has been providing the city and the surrounding area with all the teaching experience needed to explore deeper waters. Located along Sutherland Avenue, their experienced dive instructors guide those who seek the depths of adventure —whether they know their way around rougher waters or have never gotten their feet wet — through it all. As an authorized SSI/PADI instructional center, the Ski/Scuba Center will helpget divers started with the best equipment around while meeting all financial needs.

Through private or group courses, learning or advancing the diving skill is convenient with flexible scheduling to fit a future diver’s busy life. With 100 years combined experience between the instructors, divers can feel confident going into the water and know that their safety is the highest priority. Placing an emphasis on teaching the knowledge to make smart decisions on the fly under the roaring waves, the instructors at Ski/Scuba Center offer the resources needed to let students have fun without worry.

NEED EQUIPMENT? The Ski/Scuba Center stocks several brands catering to a large selection in quality Scuba, Snorkel, and Freediving gear. The equipment in store can be checked out, tried on, and tested out in the site’s heated, 10 ft. deep pool. The center is also a full-service Scuba Schools International member and gives custom training in many specialty certifications.

If a diver wants to put all they have learned into the bluest waters, Ski/Scuba offers several group trips with equipment to various locations around the globe. Some of these include their annual West Palm Beach trip and the fall Bonaire trip. If flying is not a diver’s style, don’t worry. During the summer months, groups are taken to local quarries within the area and spend the hot days diving into cool waters and meeting fellow divers.

The center is located at 2543 Sutherland Avenue in Knoxville, Tennessee.
