SCUBA shop letting everyone take a dip Jim Barrie wants to share his love for SCUBA diving, so he’s letting everyone try it. His dive shop, The Scuba Shack, (www.TheScubaPlace.com ) located in Florence, is offering a “Try SCUBA Experience” to anyone interested in diving. “SCUBA diving is not a sport. It’s not a hobby. It’s a lifestyle! We want to expose as many people as we can to this exciting way of life,” said Barrie. Barrie has owned The Scuba Shack for 12 years, and in that time has been told by countless people that they would love to try diving. He knows that if they do, they’ll love it! So he wants to give them the opportunity. All those who would like to try SCUBA diving will be geared-up and go

for a dip with a certified instructor in The Scuba Shack’s indoor, heated, 10 foot-deep, diver training pool. Reservations are required, and can be made by calling 859-2831550. The Scuba Shack also
offers SCUBA certification training. Through comprehensive classroom and pool training, divers learn proper technique, safety measures, and how to use the equipment. Once certified, a diver is ready to go on one of the shop’s many trips to
dive locations in the United States and abroad. The Shack currently has trips scheduled to: Florida, North Carolina, St. Lucia, Bonaire, Fiji, Bali/Indonesia, and The Red Sea. Pricing varies by destination. “There’s nothing quite
like a group trip” said Barrie. “Both divers and non-divers come back with a group of new friends, having visited some of the world’s most beautiful destinations” he said.
