Discover Scuba Diving

Curious but not ready to commit to a full certification? Discover Scuba Diving is a guided first-breath experience in the pool — no coursework, no exam, just you and an instructor figuring out if diving is for you.

It's also perfect for partners, friends, or family who want to give it a try while you're finishing up your Open Water training. Many divers in our courses started exactly this way.

Prefer to skip the pool? Discover Scuba can also be done in the Caribbean as an open-water experience — a short briefing and basic skills session in shallow water, then a guided dive on the reef alongside the rest of the group.

Book a Discover session
  • About 2 hours, all in the heated pool
  • All gear provided — just bring a swimsuit
  • No prior experience or certification required
  • Ages 10+ · basic swim ability
  • Counts toward Open Water if you continue
  • Great add-on for partners during your training
  • Available in the Caribbean as a guided open-water experience
