International Scuba
From your first breath underwater in a heated indoor pool to liveaboard expeditions in Raja Ampat and the Philippines, International Scuba has been guiding DFW divers through every stage of the sport for over 20 years.
International Scuba operates out of two locations in the Dallas–Fort Worth metro — Carrollton and Frisco — delivering scuba education with a focus on small class sizes, with a maximum instructor-to-student ratio of six to one. Open water certification training takes place in an indoor heated pool at the Carrollton location, followed by four open-water dives at The Scuba Ranch in Terrell, Texas. The shop runs a dense schedule of courses, from entry-level Open Water and Discover Scuba through Rescue Diver, Enriched Air, and specialty courses like Wreck Diver. Beyond local training, the team organizes group dive travel to destinations including St. Lucia, the Cayman Islands, the Flower Gardens (off the Texas coast), Tulum caverns, and multi-night liveaboard expeditions in the Philippines, Indonesia (Raja Ampat), and beyond. Upcoming trips include a liveaboard through Tubbataha and Dumaguete (2029), a Raja Ampat liveaboard (2028), and a resort stay in St. Lucia (2026). The shop also identifies itself as a PADI Tec Rec Center and TDI Training Center, with professional instructors specializing in technical and sidemount diving. International Scuba stocks and sells diving equipment, offering pricing that the shop states meets or beats online pricing. Staff includes more than 20 diving professionals, and the shop prides itself on training many of the scuba instructors in the DFW area. Rental equipment is available for students who purchase their essential personal gear through the shop.
