We have been bringing our two boys here for the last year and half. The staff are incredibly friendly. They are very flexible with scheduling and the atmosphere is pleasant and the best part is they are open all year round.

Best thing I’ve done is put my grandkids in swim lessons here at Harry’s. Then my granddaughter asked if she could do Scuba Rangers this year as she turned 8 in April. Well needless to say she is having a great time. Learning about underwater adventures and will be getting certified as soon as she turns 12. I consider myself truly fortunate to have the instructors here at Harry’s who have worked with these children and made them feel comfortable in the water. thank you to the staff, instructors and owner Cindy for your kindness to your customers.

We have been going to Harry’s for a few years now. We have had a few coaches over the years and all of them have been so nice and overly accommodating. Beth and coaches always ensures my child is comfortable and the teachers never make my child feel pressured to do anything. It’s so nice to have an accessible pool available year round rain or shine!

I usually do not take the time to write reviews, but I am so happy with Cindy and all of the employees, instructors, etc. My daughter and I were just certified this summer as open water divers. Now, my son is interested and attended the "try scuba" class today. As always, they were amazing. I cannot say enough about how wonderful they are. I was not the easiest person to teach, but the instructors were patient and made sure I was prepared to make the five dives safely. Thank you to everyone at Harry's Dive Shop
