Become a Tec Deep Diver!
Learn From The Friendliest Experts In Diver Training

Welcome to the world of deep diving!
We at Scuba Fusion Dive Center look forward to helping you get trained as a DSAT Tec Deep Diver. After successful completion of the DSAT Tec Deep Diver course you'll be able to conduct gas-switch extended no-decompression dives, decompression dives and accelerated decompression dives using air and enriched air to a depth of 165 feet. You'll also understand the hazards and risks involved in technical diving, as well as how to prepare for and handle reasonable foreseeable technical diving emergencies. If you have any questions, or would like to sign-up, stop by, call us, or send us an e-mail.

Training Fees
The DSAT Tec Deep Diver total training fee depends on the number of divers. For a single class it is $1,895.00. For a group class (2 or more) it's $1,595 per diver. The fees are broken down as follows:

$100.00 - Store Registration Fee (nonrefundable, nontransferable)
$1,795 (or $1,495 for a group class) - Instructor Fee (cash/check only)

Three of your dives are done off from the Monterey shorelines. The remainder may be done off of a dive boat in Monterey. When you sign up for the class, the Store Registration Fee will be
collected. The Instructor will collect the Instructor Fee (cash/check only) during the first night of class (this may be made in three staged payments, at the Instructor's descretion). Class size is limited, so early registration is recommended!
