A New Home for DFW Divers
Dive shops across Dallas and Fort Worth have closed their doors. Dive West closed. Grapevine Scuba closed. ScubaToys is closing. Arlington Scuba closed. For many divers, that did not just mean losing a store. It meant losing a dive home, a weekend rhythm, and a place where people understood why the water matters so much.
If that is you, you are not finished. You are not former. You are still a diver.
OCD Divers in Colleyville was built for divers who refuse to let their obsession fade just because a shop went dark. We are a modern, home based dive shop that exists for people who want to keep diving, keep learning, and keep getting better.
If your old shop closed, welcome home.
We offer SDI and PSS training, PADI classes through special arrangement, full air support, and in stock gear. You can shop in person during posted hours or buy online and pick up when it fits your life. Whether you are in Dallas, Fort Worth, Grapevine, Southlake, Keller, or anywhere in between, we are now your most convenient local dive shop.
Why Divers Choose OCD Divers
- Training for real life: Weekender certification programs designed for working adults and families.
- Gear when you need it: Core gear in stock so you can get fitted and dive without delays.
- Safety that matches your obsession: Small class sizes, mastery based training, and a full industrial compressor system.
- Air you can trust: Clean, dry, reliable air fills with fast turnaround.
- A home based, student centered approach: Clear expectations, honest feedback, and no pressure or upselling.
Where Divers Go Now

This is a strong path for professionals who want a shop that values safety, clarity, and long term relationships with students.
You Are Still a Diver
If you are looking at this page, you probably lost a shop you cared about. That hurts. But it does not have to be the end of your dive story.
We would be honored to be the next chapter.
