Each person's story is important. When we share our stories, we give others the chance to learn from our experiences. Our stories connect us in so many ways.

We opened our doors in 2001, and for five years we have been providing quality instruction and scuba gear for our customers in Central Pennsylvania. My wife and I got into the business because we are natural born entrepenuers. We found a desire among people to scuba dive and wanted ceritification but were limited in their choices for training. We always pride ourselves on our ability to be flexible with our customers schedule. Since a normal course may take 4 weeks to complete we build our schedule around your schedule. We also pride ourselves in offering several lines of scuba gear to match your experience and check book.
Our staff and owners have been diving for many years and they know the scuba industry from certification agencies, to dive trips, to scuba gear. We have two instructors, several divemasters, a full time retail manager, and then there is myself, Mike, and my wife. We hope to see you come through our door when you need scuba certification, gear or just want to talk about the sport. We usually have a gallon of Ritchey's Ice Tea so come in and make yourselves comfortable.
We are conveniently located off the Plank Road exit of I-99. Just past WalMart, on the right, you will see a dive flag.
See ya soon.
Malabar Acres is a small orchard located in Ashland Co. Ohio. We focus on our peaches but also do some apples and a few berries. Peach season starts in early July and can last until Labor Day. Apple season starts in late August and runs until first hard frost which can be as late as end of October. We are just on the northwestern edge of the Ohio Amish area. Holmes and Wayne Co. are the main Amish areas. We are just west of the Wayne/ Holmes/Ashland border. We are just south of the Lincoln Highway - US Route 30. We have a lot of Amish customers and we remind drivers to be careful when traveling State Route 89 which passes by the orchard. Mike
