Our Discover (try) Scuba class is a great way to experience scuba diving in a controlled environment with one of our experienced instructors, without the time commitment required to earn a full certification.
Availability: In Stock
During your dive, you will learn a couple of underwater skills, and then you will get time to swim around on scuba! Generally, this course is done in a pool, but it can also be done in our local quarry (participants are responsible for any fees), weather & conditions permitting.
If you decide that diving is awesome and you want more, you can elect for an additional “open water discover dive” which allows you to explore open water with an instructor. The skills you learn in this course will give you an advantage should you decide to pursue your open water certification.
What to expect:
You’ll always remember the first time you breathe underwater. Our instructors will conduct a thorough briefing on the skills you’ll need & how to do them on the day of your dive. These skills will be demonstrated by the instructor who will then observe you performing them. The instructor is there to guide you through each skill and help you work through any issues you face. After you have shown mastery of these few skills, you’ll go on a supervised dive with our instructor ensuring you can safely enjoy your time underwater.
