Welcome to Frogg Pond Dive!

 We are delighted you have found us and hope we can be of service to you now and in the  future.  Our dive shop is a 5-Star PADI facility which was established in 1982 at our current location in Highland Park, Illinois.  We have been actively serving the Diving, Snorkeling, and Swim needs of Chicagoland residents for nearly 3 decades.  At Frogg Pond Dive our mission is to create outstanding Scuba Diving, Snorkeling and Swimming experiences for our guests.  Our professional and experienced staff is fully committed to safety, customer service and creating your fun and personalized adventure.  At Frogg Pond Dive “Your Adventure Is Our Business”. We maintain many lines of equipment for Scuba, Snorkeling and Swimming including Mares, Cressi, XS-Scuba, Sherwood, Seasoft, Henderson, Whites Drysuits, Zeagle, and Ocean Reef Full-Face Masks.  Air tank and paintball fills are always available during store hours and we have a full service repair facility able to address any repair or maintenance required on your equipment.

Our training is our passion and the entire reason we entered into the professional ranks of Scuba.  The Frogg Pond Dive training programs are anchored by owners Mike Ginter and Jack Donoval who are both Maser Scuba Diver Trainers with decades of diving experience throughout the world.  We offer group classes every month for many different PADI certifications; take a look at our calendar to see what is coming up next.  If you cannot find a class that fits your schedule or interest we can always plan a class for you as a private working with your individual schedule.

If you’re looking to dive we do offer local charters onto Lake Michigan and the area lakes and quarries throughout our dive season (April – October).  We also travel several times a year to some of the best dive destinations in the world.  If you would like to travel with us, check out the Travel section of our website and the calendar.  We also offer private travel services for families and small groups looking to plan their own trip.  Let us know what you want to do or where you want to go and we can have our dive staff there ready to help you plan your adventure.

We look forward to helping you now and in the future; please feel free to contact us directly with any questions.
