News & Links : 8th Anniversary Event!

It’s the time of year that you’ve been waiting for! Dive Addicts celebrates its 8th Anniversary Event Sept. 10 & 11 with huge savings on display models, clearance items, rental gear and more. Try Scuba FREE, attend a FREE clinic or demo a rebreather. Of course, there will be FREE food and drinks so don’t miss out!

Try Scuba FREE! Have you ever tried Scuba diving? If not, or if your friend/family member has always wondered what it’s like to breathe underwater, come let us show you how much fun it is Sat., Sept. 11 from 10-4pm. Min. age 10; parent’s permission required under 18. There is a Liability Release and Medical Form to complete, found here. First come, first to dive or RSVP at 801-572-5111.


Be the first to hunt for select Display Item Treasures! We want to move certain “gently aged” display items to make room for new displays. Hunt for these items tagged with a gold sticker and really SAVE! Once the display item is gone, the deal is gone as well…don’t wait! Read more here.


All Rental Gear BCDs and regulators will be ON SALE! We always rent the latest, top-of-the-line equipment and will be buying new BCDs and regulators, so get your “gently used” set of gear for almost half off retail prices. Regulator does not include console/computer. FYI, we will be increasing our rental prices for the new equipment after the sale. Don’t miss out, limited items available!


Our Dive Addicts 2nd Annual Scuba Dive-A-Thon is nearing the finish line! Have you been diving this Summer?

What is it like to dive without bubbles? Come see for yourself during our Rebreather Demo Fri., Sept. 10 5-9pm! Cost is $40/diver to cover materials; RSVP to reserve your space or sign up online here. This demo will begin in the classroom to discuss what a rebreather is and how diving with one has benefits over open circuit diving.
