Diving Costs
The cost of the dive depends largely on where you plan to dive, what company you dive with, and the duration of your dive. The following diving prices are not exact, but roughly what you can expect to spend at the following locations.
Diving spots in the United States do not tend to include the cost of equipment rental in their prices, while international diving is typically more of a package deal to include rental. When trying to decide where to dive, it’s important to check specific location’s websites or to call them to better understand what is and is not included in the price.
