Scuba Adventures
Founded in 1992, Poseidon Handicap Scuba Adventures, a non-profit organization, dedicates itself to improving the physical and social well being of people with disabilities by teaching underwater educational programs to disabled individuals utilizing the Handicap Scuba Association guidelines.

27+ Years of Teaching the Disabled & Supporting Able-Bodied Individuals Underwater Educational Programs
Poseidon Handicap Scuba Adventures (PHSA) was founded by Mark Rausch in 1992 and teaches disabled and supporting able-bodied individuals underwater educational programs utilizing the Handicap Scuba Association guidelines.
We teach the healing powers of the sea, in how we view ourselves, each other, even the world around us. Challenges are about believing in new directions and embarking on them with a sense of excitement and adventure. Discover the changes available for you in working with the disabled whether you’re a Scuba Diving Instructor, a person with a disability, or a diver seeking the personal enrichment of learning how to dive with a handicap partner.
