Discover Scuba Diving

How does Discover scuba diving program work?

•  Participants learn fundamental scuba diving principles, including essential safety rules and basic underwater communication signals. 

• Before heading to open water, participants practice basic scuba skills in a shallow, controlled environment like a pool or confined water area. Skills often include breathing underwater, clearing a mask, and regulator recovery. 

• Under the direct supervision of a certified instructor, participants typically undertake one or two dives. The maximum depth is usually limited to around 12 meters (40 feet). 

• The program usually lasts a few hours, including briefing, skills practice, and actual diving.

* No prior scuba certification or extensive swimming ability is required, making it accessible for most people. Participants are generally required to be at least 10 years old, though this may vary slightly by location and dive organization.
