Hi everyone,
I'm looking into getting my OW certificate and I'm in need of a dive shop that offers a decent dive experience for a good price (not necessarily cheap).
I've seen dive shops that offer the entire OW course for $400+tax for everything (pool training, equipment rentals, OW check-out), but they seem to be in boring places. Ideally, I'd like to learn in Tobermory so at least I get to see some wrecks while I'm out there. However, the price is a bit higher than what I was expecting ($650 and up). Are there other shops offering locations that are in a happy medium between the two? I just want to at least see a ship wreck in one or two OW dive.
Thanks.
Edit: Just a little bit of extra information about me. I am located in Etobicoke and Richmond Hill so doing my pool sessions in this area is necessary for me. I'm just looking for information on less expensive, OW check-out dive locations with at least a wreck or something that's closer to home.
