Welcome to our dive siteThe Altitude Diver Course
Any time you are diving 1,000 to 10,000 feet above sea level, you're altitude diving and in West Texas we certainly fit that rule. If you plan on doing any diving west of Austin or Ft Worth the Altitude Diver Specialty course is for you. Any diving in west Texas or New Mexico is at altitude, even Balmorhea.
The Fun Part
Dive more challenging dive sites like the "Blue Hole" in Santa Rosa, NM while you satisfy your curiosity for “I wonder what’s down there?” The fun part about altitude diving is that you can explore places many people have never seen.
