Choo Choo Diving & Aquatic Center

From their 85°-heated pool in Chattanooga to dive sites around the world, Choo Choo Diving puts you in the hands of professionals who personally hand-select each diver for their trips to keep safety and quality front and center.

Choo Choo Diving & Aquatic Center operates out of Chattanooga, Tennessee as a full-service dive and aquatics facility. The shop's on-site heated pool—maintained at 85°F—serves as the training venue for confined-water sessions, while the team organizes certification dives at local and regional open-water sites. Their dive professionals personally hand-select participants for each trip, with safety described as everyone's number one priority. The course catalog runs the full spectrum, from the introductory Try Scuba experience and Learn to SCUBA open-water certification (for ages 10 and up) through Advanced, Stress & Rescue, and professional-level Divemaster and Open Water Instructor programs. Specialty courses include Wreck Diving, Deep Diving (to 40 meters/130 feet), Boat Diving, Enriched Air Nitrox, Cavern Diving, Sidemount, Decompression Diving, and more—meaning classroom and pool work can be completed without leaving Chattanooga. The shop also adds a Swim School for swimmers of all ages. Beyond the training pool, Choo Choo organizes exotic dive travel to destinations around the world, pairing certified divers with guided underwater adventures curated by the shop's dive professionals. An equipment sales department covering most major brands and a full-service gear maintenance operation round out the business.
