Have you ever wondered what it's like to breathe underwater?
If you want to find out but aren’t quite ready to take the plunge with a full certification course, a Discover Scuba 1hr pool try dive will let you try scuba to see if you like it.
We highly recommend trying Scuba first before committing to a full course. You can try it first without the expense or the pressure of meeting the certification standards of a course.
With our maximum ratio of 2 students per instructor (or one per family) no one is ever rushed through, its all at your own pace.
While not an actual scuba certification, during the scuba dive experience you’ll learn how to use scuba equipment in shallow water and get a quick and easy introduction to what it takes to explore the underwater world.
The Fun Part!
There is nothing like breathing underwater for the very first time. It takes a little getting used to – after all, human beings weren’t designed to do that – but after a few minutes of awestruck wonder, most participants realise how easy scuba diving really is.
The biggest challenge instructors have with the Try Dive programme is not coaxing participants into the water, but coaxing them out when the programme is over. The fun part? It’s all fun!
