Dive in the National Aquarium in Baltimore ($295 for Two Dives)

That's right, you heard us - DIVE in the National Aquarium in Baltimore! Atlantic Edge Dive Center is proud to partner with the National Aquarium in Baltimore to offer the best diving in Maryland—two dives in the Aquarium’s most popular exhibits, the Atlantic Coral Reef, and Wings in the Water. Led by our professional dive staff, participants will be taught the basics of Aquarium diving before taking the plunge into our world of rays, sharks, and 53 species of fish. As you swim amongst these fascinating creatures, you will also learn the role divers can play in reef conservation and how to be a steward of our precious natural resources.

This experience begins at 2:45 with a brief classroom session where we will learn about the Aquarium, its conservation message, the animals we will see, etc. We will then brief at each exhibit, get ready to dive and then hop into the water! The dives will start at about 5:15 and we are generally finished and leaving the Aquarium around 7:30/8:00. You would have to travel around the globe to experience a day of diving like this, but with this fun-filled experience you can have it all right here in your own backyard!

Prerequisites - Must be a Certified Diver. Must be 18 years old.

Testimonials for Aquarium Diver

First: Excellent experience, definitely worthwhile! I was literally inches from some incredibly cool sea life -- giant green moray eel, zebra shark, sea turtle, enormous rays! I brought a friend with a lot of experience in low-light fast-action photography, and he was able to get a couple of pictures that were really amazing. The DMs and aquarium personnel were superb; high-energy, professional, and friendly -- very positive experience, and definitely recommended!

All in all: great experience, fun for both myself and my photographer friend. There's a certain air of "domestication" about it, but it's still very worthwhile and a great way to get close to some really incredible animals.

I am a 10 year customer of Atlantic Edge Dive Center. I have taken several advanced scuba courses at Atlantic Edge and the Aquarium Diver course. (I have no benefit from this testimonial.) John Harmen and his professional staff provided me a world class experience in the classroom and in the water. Also, Atlantic Edge makes shopping for the right equipment for you (no matter what level of experience you may have) a piece of cake and his prices are very reasonable. Service is "Your wish is my command" and gets done ASAP!

I had a wonderful experience diving the Baltimore National Aquarium with Atlantic Edge on May 7, 2011. The Dive Master and assisting divers were real professionals as well as being so friendly and helpful to each of us. It was thrilling to be in the aquariums "hobnobbing" with all the "locals"! Being so close to such big, beautiful fish, rays and the mother-of-all-sea-turtles was a delight. Based on this diving experience, I highly recommend Atlantic Edge and its staff and look forward to taking future trips with them. Tom Southworth PADI Rescue Diver Scuba qualified since 1982
