Welcome to Tropical Penguin Scuba, northern Nevada's largest full service diving center!

Come check out our new store, after 15 years we’ve moved to a larger location!

  We are Northern Nevada's leading Dive center. We offer instruction from entry level open water, to advanced closed circuit rebreathers. We are an authorized dealer for most major dive equipment brands, and offer quality rentals. We have a discount, full-service travel department for all world-wide dive destinations, with a group, or with your buddy! See the links to the left to browse around. Enjoy your stay.

Every month one of our students or customers will be awarded Diver of the Month. Their picture and a brief comment will be posted here (with their permission of course).

*** Nick wrote a poem for school that is a must read. Nick is only 12 years old, but it really sums up why we dive! Read it here.

*** The trip to the Philippines was a great success. Pictures of the trip will be in the photo gallery soon, but you can download a video of the puffer here. (right click and select save as)

*** ONLY HERE!!! Everyone’s been waiting, and now we have a sample! The most exciting thing to happen in dive equipment for years, and we’re the only ones with it!!! The Oceanic DataMask HUD (Heads Up Display)!!! There are only a few samples in existence, and other than a few select Oceanic tour stops, Tropical Penguin Scuba is the only place you can see it. Stop by Tropical Penguin Scuba and check it out! (Available for pre-sale. Be the first, order yours today! Expected delivery by July 2007)

 

*** After 15 years of teaching divers in the Reno area, we have moved to a new, larger location at 961 Matley Lane, #130, Reno, NV 89502. We have grown and we are now in a much better location! We are in the heart of town and easier to get to! Come down soon to say hi and check out the new store!  directions

*** We are very excited by our new website and we are currently updating our pages, so please be patient with us. We intend to have a full list of classes and events, along with more pictures and lots of new exciting information and features! Keep coming back often and check out all the fun changes!
