Happenings

Saturday, May 17th, 10 am - 6 pm

Sunday, May 18th, 12 Noon - 5 pm


Every year Scuba North helps divers to buy and sell their used equipment. This is a great time for new divers to get deals on scuba gear or for seasoned divers to find additional items they may be lacking. There are always great deals and sometimes rare antiques and memorabilia will show up!

If you wish to sell at the event, bring items into Scuba North starting May 10th and we will help you price and tag them. Items will not be accepted prior to May 10th due to space limitations.

All consignment items should be in good working condition or "gently used." Scuba North assumes no liability for items purchased at the Flea Market - all consignment items are sold "as is." Scuba North does recommend that all scuba equipment purchased at the event be serviced prior to use.

Local Evening Dives

Local evening dives are scheduled each summer to provide a safe means of group diving in our local lakes and rivers
as well as Lake Michigan and Grand Traverse Bays.
Scuba North sets the dates, provides a divemaster to oversee the dive, and offers rental gear at 50% off the daily rate.

The store closes at 6
pm then off we go to a location that is best for temperature and weather Ñ
usually decided on that dive day.
