Scuba Center Scuba Center has been teaching scuba diving classes since 1973. Learn more: scubacenter.com At Scuba Center we've been teaching scuba diving classes since 1973.

We were Minnesota's first PADI 5 Star Training Facility and have grown to become Minnesota's largest scuba diving school (and one of the largest in the Midwest). Scuba Center offers a complete range of PADI scuba diving training classes from Beginning (Open Water Diver) to the PADI Instructor Development Course (IDC). Our Eagan Scuba Center, located 5 minutes south of Mall of America, features a 12 ft deep in store pool heated to a tropical 88 degrees, two classrooms, a full line of scuba diving & snorkeling equipment, Nitrox fills, and our Public Safety Diving/Water Rescue Department. Our original Scuba Center in South Minneapolis, open since 1973, offers a complete selection of scuba diving equipment, snorkeling equipment, and lessons. This location is just two blocks south of Lake Harriet.

Big schools of anthias are pretty common in the Indo Pacific. They are generally plankton pickers so you'll usually see them above reef structure, up in the water column. Purple anthias are one of the kinds you'll see diving in the Solomons! Join us at Fish Night next week to learn more about some of the fish to look for in the Indo Pacific (with a few fun ones that you might only see in the Solomons). 7 pm Tues, Sept. 22 at Eagan. Friends, family, nondivers welcome.

Have you ever seen one of these surgeonfish? Striped surgeonfish are found throughout the IndoPacific, but they tend to hang out in shallow surge-y water. We always look for them at the end of a dive when we're digging around in the shallows! Join us at Fish Night on Sept. 22 to learn more about some of the fish you'll see diving in the Solomons and elsewhere in the Pacific! Tues, Sept. 22, 7 pm at Eagan. Friends, family, nondivers welcome.

Juvenile sweetlips do their best imitation of a flatworm to avoid getting eaten. You'll see them throughout the Indian and Pacific Oceans if you know what to look for! Join us at Fish Night on Sept. 22 to learn more about fish you'll see diving in the Solomon Islands! 7 pm Tues Sept 22 at Eagan. Friends, family, nondivers welcome.

Big congratulations to our 19 new PADI Open Water divers! It was a fantastic weekend at the lake in spite of a very rainy start to Saturday and bad viz all around. Everyone’s positive attitude and hard work made it super fun for everyone. (And we even had a sighting of a bald eagle eating a fish during one of our surface intervals.) Can’t wait to hear about everyone’s dive adventures! Scuba Center Staff: Matt, Alice, Heather, Will R.

Another Scuba Center trip to Isle Royale is in the history books. It was a great week spent doing some of the best wreck diving in the world. Thank you to everyone who joined us for this adventure.

Our group wants to extend a special thank you to Jorie and Quinn of Unsalted Adventures. We can’t wait to return next season.
