Congratulations to Scuba Luv's newest PADI Open Water Scuba Instructor, Devin Thompson. She recently completed the first IDC to be hosted by Catalina Scuba Luv in nearly 8 years. The IE was also held on the island and she rocked it.

Feb. 15, 2009 - Happy Valentine's Day Scuba Luvers

Seems our recent dive trips have been few and far between; however, spectacular none the less. Today we took out a group of six from the east bay area in Northern California as well as former Scuba Luv Instructor Chris Schad and current Scuba Luv Instructor Paul Thetreau. The boys went diving for food and photos. Needless to say, we all have something nice to look at, but our bellies stayed empty. We all had a great time and hope this group returns again real soon.

P.S. Photos coming soon.

Hi there divers!
