Our Story

Meet Chad & Jessica

Every dive is personal. Every detail is intentional. This is diving the way it should be.

Founder & Lead Instructor

Born from a Lifelong Love of the Ocean

Chad Hanjora has been drawn to the water for as long as he can remember. What started as a childhood fascination became a way of life when he earned his first certification in 2013 — and within two years, he knew he wanted to teach.

By 2015, Chad was a PADI Instructor. He spent a year and a half teaching in Hawaii before heading to Key Largo — the Dive Capital of the World. Now based in Orlando, he leads trips across South Florida and the Keys as a PADI IDC Staff Instructor.

Ask Chad what he's most proud of, and it's not the credentials. It's the moment a diver surfaces and says, “That was the best dive I've ever had.” It's why his friends know him as The Scuba Dad.

The Eye Behind the Lens

Jessica and Chad met on one of his dive excursions. She became the love of his life, his dive partner, and eventually the other half of BluWave Divers.

Jessica is a gifted photographer with an instinct for capturing the moments most people forget to look for. Her underwater images don't just document a dive — they make you feel like you're back in the water.

She obsesses over the details most operators overlook — boat logistics, surface intervals, post-dive dining. If you've ever been on a dive trip where everything just worked, that's what Jessica delivers — every time.
