Inclusive and Adaptive

Amazing Guest Experiences for All Divers

Our number one goal at Low Key Watersports is that our guests have a great experience from the moment they book their dive trip all the way through their stay with us and beyond. We are constantly striving for ways to make guest experiences better by keeping our website user-friendly, revamping our booking process to make it easier, changing our course and trip offerings, adding new products to our retail store, and keeping our boats in tip-top shape. 

We feel we have always been inclusive and adaptive to our guest’s needs but we want to make sure you know what we are doing behind the scenes to make sure our guests know how much we value each one of them.   

Training Beyond Scuba Instructor for Our Staff

Our dive instructors strive to give every guest an amazing experience but we have taken things one step further and several of our dive staff are now certified as PADI Adaptive Techniques Instructors. This course is for Dive Professionals and focuses on increasing awareness of varying abilities, and explores adaptive teaching techniques to apply when training and diving with guests who are physically and mentally challenged.  

What does this mean to our guests? Even though we have always tried to give each guest the best possible individual service, having our staff professionally trained to assist divers with additional challenges opens up diving to even more visitors to St. John. 

Adaptive Support Diver Specialty Course for Our Guests – Coming Soon!

Do you want to learn how to best support a dive buddy who has a physical or mental challenge? The PADI Adaptive Support Diver course at Low Key Watersports will increase your awareness of divers’ varying abilities and explores adaptive techniques to apply while diving or freediving with a buddy with a disability.

Through knowledge development and two diving workshops – one in confined water and one in open water – you’ll learn useful techniques that will increase your ability to become a better dive partner to a diver with a disability. You’ll gain insight and practical experience as you learn about:

• Becoming more aware and mindful of individual considerations when diving with people with disabilities.
