Vancouver Scuba Diving School is operated by Mark Leichnitz, a PADI Master Scuba Diver Trainer and commercial/occupational diver with a passion for underwater vidoegraphy and a mission to teach students to become skilled, confident divers while exploring world class dive sites.

Vancouver Scuba Diving School offers PADI diving courses, specializing in private one-on-one instruction and small groups. Course schedules are flexible to meet the student's time availability and personal pace of learning and progress.

We also offer diving day trips for locals and travellers. We always bring the video camera along on our guided tours, producing a custom DVD or You Tube video of your dive day at no additional cost (conditions permitting).

We are not a conventional brick and mortar dive shop. Rather, we maintain relationships with dive shops that supply us with all the gear and offer our clients a 15% discount on all rentals and gear purchases.
