Johnson's Sporting Goods-Portland

Tucked into Portland on Congress Street, Johnson's Sporting Goods is a one-stop shop for scuba diving and the many other outdoor activities Maine has to offer. As a PADI 5 Star IDC backed by 4 PADI Instructors, it's a place built for divers who want serious instruction without leaving the neighbourhood.

Training and services

Courses run through PADI Scuba Diving and PADI First Aid – EFR, supported by an onsite training pool and classroom that make learning comfortable in any season. Air fills and Nitrox keep certified divers topped up, while equipment sales and a full retail shop cover gear from the ground up.

Rental options are generous, spanning scuba, kids' and travel equipment — open-heel fins, compass, BCD, a 7mm wetsuit, mask and snorkel, gauges, regulator, boots, plus aluminium and steel cylinders. With onsite parking and English-speaking staff, it suits new and travelling divers alike who want everything in one place.
