Oceanside Scuba and Swim Center, Oceanside

Oceanside Scuba and Swim Center opened only recently, but diving has long been a part of owner Ray Simon's job. As a member of the United States Marine Corps, he traversed much of the globe underwater, initially diving recreationally before turning professional. After retiring, Simon established two suba centers. At Oceanside Scuba, he and his staff of trainers equip visitors with the skills they need to safely explore the ocean and understand fish traffic signals through year-round classes while providing them the necessary gear through rentals.
