About Us

Charlene & Mel Goffard, of Hortonville, opened Diver's Realm, Inc. in July of 1998. In 2011 we moved to Westland Drive, a Hwy 41 frontage road South of the Fox River Mall but on the East side of the Highway (about 5 buildings South of Macco's Floor Covering Store). Since moving we've been seeing lots of new faces. Being visible from Hwy 41 is helping more people find us. We do a lot of local diving and occasional trips to warmer locations. We invite you to stop by and check us out. Join us for a dive if you can. Diver's Realm is a full service dive center offering rentals, repairs, sales, travel, and instruction.

Diver's Realm, Inc. teaches many of PADI's Courses. Whether you want to learn to snorkel, scuba dive in a lake or go someplace more exotic we can take you there.
