Rainbow Reef Dive Center
Rainbow Reef Dive Center and Rainbow Reef Career Development Center are the largest dive operation and PADI's most-chosen Career Development Center in North America, respectively. Our campus includes a fully-stocked retail dive store, state-of-the-art training center, 12' deep freshwater pool with onsite compressor & tanks/weights, and student housing in shared three-bedroom apartments, all located in Key Largo, the dive capital of the US. Just three quarters of a mile south of campus are the two dockside dive centers which house our 8 custom dive boats, the largest fleet of dive vessels in all of Florida. Our docks are on opposite sides of the Port Largo Canal, leading directly to the warm, clear waters of the wrecks and reefs of the Florida Keys National Marine Sanctuary.
