Our Story
A Life Long Journey
Racheal Roberts is a native of the Florida Keys, who has been in and around the ocean most of her life and Open Water certified since 2003. Having moved to North Carolina, she discovered Blue Stone Dive Resort in 2017 and has made it her home ever since. She began advancing her training with Mike McNeil through SDI and progressed to become one of the instructors for Blue Dolphin in 2022. Racheal opened Roberts Elite Diving, LLC, in 2025 and continues to teach classes through Blue Dolphin Dive Shop and privately at Blue Stone Dive Resort in Thomasville, NC.
"Scuba Diving is more than a recreational hobby, it’s an opportunity to quiet the mind, calm the nervous system, enrich the soul with the beauty of the underwater world, and rejuvenate our spirit by fulfilling that sense of adventure that calls to us.
I greatly enjoy broadening the scope of my skills, knowledge base, and experiences. Continuous education and training is at the heart of who I am as a life long learner. Having taught literacy and English abroad, investing 8 years as an educator for WSFCS, and now dedicating my career to serve and honor military service members, Veterans, and their families, I strive to share the peace, freedom, and adventure that comes beneath the waves with as many as possible.
Having the ability to combine my passions for diving, education, and support for Veterans is one of the many joys of my life. My Blue Dolphin Dive family has been my greatest support. SCUBA diving brings families and people from all walks of life together in such a beautiful way. If you have ever wondered what it would be like to dive, don’t wait, join the family. It will be one of the best decisions you ever make.”
