What To Expect
After meeting your instructor and completing a medical declaration, you will head out on the regular daily dive boat trip along with everyone else for the 2 dive trip. You will receive entry level equipment and ears equalising basic training in the boat, which will be followed through in the shallow waters beside one of the coral reefs. When comfortable, your instructor will manage everything for you regarding descent and buoyancy - all you have to do is continue breathing and fall in love with our marine backyard. No pool training necessary, and your instructor will remain with you throughout - even hold your hand for confidence boost if you would like. The Introductory Dives are designed to be experiential for non certified divers, and is great for a certified person who has a non certified partner, or family group and would like to share the experience of first time scuba diving. Minimum age to scuba dive is 10 years old - a great family holiday experience.
