Discover Scuba Diving
Overview
A "Try-Dive" is perfect for anyone who has never dived before and would like to give it a try to get an idea of how it feels to breath underwater and swim with the fish. In the Discover SCUBA Diving program the dive instructor explains the most important parts of diving theory first, then you go into shallow water to get used to the breathing under water and practice some diving skills. Once you feel comfortable you go for one easy guided dive. So you can get step-by-step a beautiful dive experience. This program takes around 3 hours and it can be even enjoyed by people who don't know how to swim.

What To Expect
This is a great experience to try scuba diving. Your instructor will then teach you all you need to know to enjoy your first ever scuba dive, in the comfort of the dive center. Our instructors are highly experienced and professional, and are always happy to answer any questions you may have.
After the briefing, it's time to head out to the ocean! Enjoy short cruise out to a shallow dive site. We will take you to dive sites that offer what we call 'Confined Open Water', which is essentially a part of the ocean that offers pool-like conditions.
In the water, your instructor will help you practice a few basic skills to get you comfortable with the SCUBA equipment. And before you know it, you're breathing underwater for the first time, surrounded by beautiful tropical fish, all in perfect safety. If you fall in love with SCUBA, feel free to chat to your instructor about upgrading to being a fully certified PADI Open Water Diver, at a reduced price!
