I used Saguaro Scuba to do an SDI refresher course. The staff and instructor were knowledgeable, amiable and professional. The rented gear was in good shape. Certainly recommend them for anyone wanting to take a class in the valley.

Avoid this place at all costs!! Let me run you through what they did and you decide if this is a place you would ever waste money at:
We drop off a mask which we purchased from this store for a prescription insert. We are told 2-3 weeks and $250-$300. Five (5) weeks later after multiple phone calls where we are told they 'think' or 'hope' it will be shipped soon we receive a call that the mask is in the store. I decided to purchase a complete dive package the same day as we picked up the mask, and since their website said 'in stock' for every item I wanted to purchase, it just made sense. Additionally

I am in Park City, Utah and no shop in SLC serviced all my gear. I found Saguaro Scuba online. I was a little reluctant to ship all my gear to them for service as I always dropped off at a retail shop in the past. However, the service and price were excellent, and they were great to work with. Received back in 2-3 weeks. Highly recommend.

I love this place. The people know what they were talking about. We were helped quickly, and they had what we needed. Their stock is good quality stuff, and the pricing is fair. I've been going to these guys for years. Awesome store.

These guys are awesome! Funny enough, I am not YET a scuba diver, however I have used these guys throughout the years to fill scuba tanks (for paintball and other stuff) as well as purchase other things. Today I went down there to get my wife a wetsuit for canyoneering, and Rudy was above and beyond helpful. He assisted in finding a wetsuit that fit her, discussed different options and practices, and was very polite and cheerful about us being pains in the neck for about an hour:) When I get scuba certified, I intend to go through these folks, and will use them for anything else I can as well.

Great Scuba shop. Vince and staff are all very knowledgeable and friendly. Their interest is getting you the right equipment, not the most expensive. The instructors are all patient, helpful, and work with you to give you what you need to be successful. My instructor was Shawn and he was very knowledgeable and friendly, but Rob, Ed and the other instructors were also invested in my success. I HIGHLY recommend this dive shop. And if you are a person with accessibility needs, this shop also works with Lifewaters as a partner, so they have an understanding of how to help you not only get certified
