These guys are the best!! I recently got my open water certification through their class. My instructor was Doug who is very experienced and knows his stuff. He is also VERY patient for nervous people who are a bit fearful. I am so glad I went with this dive shop for my certification and instruction.

Great place great people. We did discovery SCUBA and then signed up for open water. We did discover SCUBA with Doug. The class was great and very helpful. We signed up for the full certification right after.
We then did our open water with Rachelle. She is amazing. With tons of experience and a great attitude she shaped us into divers expertly. They went over different equipment and options that fit us. Then did an amazing job teaching us to safely dive.
I plan to continue my training here. Because they have proven to me they believe in doing it right.
Fantastic folks. We'll kept equipment.

By far the best scuba company around. They really take the time to get you knowing your skills. I am always so glad I got certified here and not in Hawaii (where I live) nor another company in Utah. Get certified here if you want to be taught well, hands down. 👏

I am sooo glad I took my PADI Open Water training at Adventure West. I did some research and am confident I made the right choice. The instructor was competent, patient, and careful and made us feel secure through every lesson. No shortcuts, they ensured we finished with the skills to dive safely. Facilities and equipment were super clean and well maintained. Some of the best money I’ve ever spent.

Doug Gilbert, Owner, Master Scuba Diver Trainer

Doug has loved diving since his first dive in 1979 and it has just gotten better and better every year. Doug and his wife, Lynnette, opened Adventure West Scuba in May of 2007, so they could share their love of diving with everyone. Doug also enjoys camping, boating, fishing, and woodworking. He enjoys traveling with his wife and their two children, Andy and Heather. His favorite place to dive is Hawaii.

Craig Guerrero, Open Water Scuba Instructor

Craig grew up in California and loves the ocean. He began working for Adventure West Scuba shortly after they opened and then became open water certified and then instantly fell in love with the sport and now wants to share his passion with everyone. He enjoys teaching and helping people get out to their comfort zones. He has been an instructor for 7 years and loves what he does and it shows! He loves sharks and night diving. Craig is multilingual , speaking English, Spanish and a little Italian. He hopes to dive his dream location Rangiroa, French Polynesia, but his current favorite is the Channel Islands.

Rachelle Sidwell, Open Water Scuba Instructor

Rachelle grew up in Morgan, Utah and from the time she was three she developed a great love for the ocean. Growing up, her dad called her "the fish" because she always wanted to be swimming, no matter what body of water it was. She signed up to do the open water diver class the day she turned 12 (that was the minimum age or it would've been sooner). She has been an avid diver for 23 years now and loves every minute! After spending some years working with animals at zoos and aquariums from Chicago to Logan, Utah, she decided to settle back into Logan and start her journey to teaching Scuba! She loves teaching, and also loves learning from the students every day. Give this girl a body of water, and she'll dive it!

Tina Rigdon, Open Water Scuba Instructor

Tina believes that being able to teach allows her to share her love for water. After 22+years of diving, she can't imagine her life without scuba diving, her "My liquid silence". She loves being a scuba and swimming instructor because she gets to be someone's first, time and time again, day after day, and that to her, is a very special thing. She loves being able to guide students from the initial nervousness to being confident in the water. Her favorite quote is "the sea, once it cast its spell, holds one in its net of wonder forever", Jacques Yves Cousteau.

Brent Winn, Master Scuba Diver Trainer

Brent is from Price, Utah. He has been diving since 2011 and received his instructor in the Red Sea, Egypt in 2014. Brent is a certified instructor for more than 20 different specialties. He has been an instructor with Adventure West Scuba since 2014, Brent enjoys teaching at Adventure West Scuba because he is not just an employee but a part of the family. Brent wasn't able to dive when he was younger due to health and ear problems, but one day one of his ear tubes fell out and the doctor cleared him for diving, and he has been in the water ever since. Brent has visited Hawaii, Brazil, Egypt, but his favorite place to dive is Catalina in a drysuit surrounded by the kelp forests.
