This is where it all begins! Learn to Scuba Dive and earn your PADI Open Water Certification at your own pace with Sugar Land Dive Center and our patient PADI Instructors.
Sugar Land Dive Center makes learning to scuba dive easy and fun. We have convenient weeknight and weekend course schedules, and all classes are limited to a maximum of six participants. Private and semi-private classes are also available on request.
