From Virginia's inland lakes to North Carolina's legendary shipwrecks, Fluvanna Dive Center takes you from your first breath underwater to the depths of the Graveyard of the Atlantic — all with small-group instruction and expert gear fitting along the way.
Fluvanna Dive Center operates out of Virginia, serving both the Lynchburg and Gordonsville areas, with training conducted in their private indoor heated pool and open water dives at Lake Phoenix. The center runs small-group classes — capped at a maximum of six students and preferably no more than four — offering personalized instruction across the full range of dive certifications from Open Water through instructor-level courses. Their schedule accommodates students with non-traditional availability, and a dedicated team of named instructors covers everything from beginner courses to Rescue and Divemaster programs. Beyond local training, Fluvanna organizes multi-day wreck diving trips to Beaufort, North Carolina, where divers explore what is billed as the Graveyard of the Atlantic. These travel trips run throughout the summer season (May through September 2026), priced at $985 per person. The center also hosts special events such as a First Responder and Military Dive Day at Lake Phoenix. The dive center's services extend to comprehensive gear support: daily and weekly rentals are available across a full range of equipment (BCD, regulator, wetsuit, tanks, computers, and more), along with expert gear fitting, repair, and custom configuration consulting. Whether a new diver needs a first setup or an experienced diver wants a streamlined technical rig, the staff works to tailor equipment to individual needs and diving goals.
