Who Are We

Another world awaits you...

How can you truly explore the world when over two-thirds of the Earth's surface is covered by water? The answer is Diving, and we can help get you there. 

We are United Divers, a premier scuba diving training and retail store in the Greater Boston area.  We are dedicated to helping you become a safe and proficient diver or to help you further develop your SCUBA skills with additional training.  

For over thirty-five years we have been working with the nation's leading dive trainers in a multitude of specialties: basic diving, open water diving, deep water diving, underwater rescue, navigation, photography, drysuit diving, wreck diving, ice diving, search and recovery... you name it. If there is a dive specialty we can help teach you, be it beginner or advanced, then call us and we will show you a world like no other.

Unlike traditional dive shops, United Divers offers flexibility. We assist a variety of people from all walks of life and skill levels with exactly the right training at exactly the right time. Our team will quickly learn your goals, needs, resources and constraints, then tailor a dive training solution that works best for you.

We also go beyond just teaching you to dive. We support a wide variety of local diving activities and encourage our fello divers to participate and explore the numerous diving opportunities that are available throughout the Greater Boston area. In supporting the local diving, we foster a community environment of divers who are expertly trained, safe and ready to join you on your next adventure.

United Divers was founded with a vision of becoming a full-service dive training provider. Whether working with a large organization, or with you just one-on-one, our fundamental goal is to put your diving dream into motion.

We are United Divers, and we ARE Diving.
