What is Dive Pirates?

Our team of Dive Pirates is group of volunteers who believes in supporting our community with our passion of scuba diving through the Dive Pirates Foundation, a 501(c)(3) not-for-profit public charity

The Dive Pirates Foundation is dedicated to bringing scuba diving to persons with mobility disabilities. What began in 2003 as a social club for divers is now a non-profit foundation that teaches, equips and takes disabled people on life changing scuba diving adventures.

While the program is open to all medically qualified physically disabled people, Dive Pirates focuses on disabled military, law enforcement and first responder veterans who have sustained injuries in the line of duty. Some of these men and women have lost a part of their youth in combat; we aim to help restore a sense of adventure, community and hope for these wounded warriors.

Why they are Awesome

  • Supported by our dive chapter network and more than 50 trained adaptive diving instructors, we have access to an array of dive center facilities nationwide. Therefore, the Dive Pirates Foundation can plan the most convenient time and location for each Dive Pirate’s training.
