Pura Vida Divers

Pura Vida Divers is a full-service PADI 5 Star CDC dive resort in West Palm Beach, Florida, running daily and private scuba charters alongside a busy schedule of instruction. With 19 PADI Instructors on staff, the centre covers everything from first courses through professional-level training, plus PADI Snorkelling, EFR first aid, and Adaptive Diving for divers of all abilities.

Built for tech divers and conservationists

This is the only Tec Rec Center in West Palm Beach, offering a full suite of technical courses and fills — air, Nitrox, Trimix, mixed gas, and CO2 scrubber absorbant. Rebreather and CCR diving round out the offering, making it a natural home for divers ready to go deeper. As one of the few Florida stores awarded the Green Star Award, the team keeps conservation, service, safety, and fun at the heart of what they do.

Local waters bring sharks, whales, turtles, rays, eels, molluscs, crustaceans, corals, and plenty of ocean fish. On-site you'll find a classroom, retail shop, free Wi-Fi, air conditioning, parking, and equipment sales, service, and rentals — including kids' and freediving gear. English is spoken throughout.
