Learn Scuba Chicago

🤝 A Message to Our Fellow Dive Shops

Over the past five years, Chicagoland has seen several dive shops close their doors, change ownership, or face significant challenges. That's not good for divers, and it's not good for our industry.

At Learn Scuba Chicago, we believe there is a better path forward: collaboration instead of competition.

This year alone, we've already partnered with two other dive shops in ways that have benefited everyone involved. We've worked together on certifications, travel opportunities, equipment sourcing, and other initiatives that helped all parties better serve their customers and grow their businesses.

As the nation's largest nonprofit full-service dive shop, we're fortunate to have resources, capacity, and opportunities that may create value for other shops. We are not looking to buy, acquire, or merge with anyone. Our goal is simple:

🌊 Work together.
🌊 Support divers.
🌊 Strengthen the Chicagoland diving community.
🌊 Create opportunities that benefit everyone involved.

Whether you're interested in certification partnerships, group travel, equipment purchasing opportunities, specialty training, or simply brainstorming ways we can help each other succeed, we'd love to start a conversation.

Let's explore what we can build together.

📧 Why Join the Learn Scuba Chicago Email List?

Because some of the best opportunities never make it to social media.

Our email subscribers are often the first to hear about:

🤿 Special scuba gear deals
🌎 Upcoming dive travel opportunities
🎓 Certification specials
💼 Employment opportunities
🙌 Volunteer opportunities
❤️ Nonprofit events and community programs
🎟️ Exclusive discount codes

We work hard to respect your inbox. During our busiest season, we typically send just one email every 7–10 days.

And sometimes those emails pay for themselves.

Last week alone, one customer saved over **$500** on scuba gear through an offer shared only with our email subscribers.

Right now, we have discount codes available exclusively through email, and dozens of divers have already taken advantage of our Open Water Certification special priced at levels not seen since before 2018—an offer that has been shared primarily through our email list.

Many of our subscribers have discovered what we jokingly call "the secrets behind the scuba retail curtain."

The truth is simple: if you're not on the list, you're probably missing opportunities.

Join our email list and stay connected to the adventures, savings, events, and opportunities happening at Learn Scuba Chicago.

Big news in the shop: Learn Scuba Chicago is one of the first spots in the country to feature Blue Therapy merchandise in store.

We are so excited about this partnership because it feels like a perfect fit. Blue Therapy uses apparel sales to power their nonprofit, , just like our scuba shop is a nonprofit and uses our work to support our mission-driven programs and community activities.

Both of our organizations believe in the healing power of water and in making water activities more accessible to all. Stop by the shop, check out the new gear, and support a movement that goes way deeper than merch.
