The Fun Part

When you participate in a Discover Scuba Diving program, you discover excitement and adventure, freedom, and serenity. Nothing compares to the “weightless” exhilaration of breathing underwater. Only a diver knows the feeling!


What You Learn

You'll learn some basics about diving, including how to communicate, be helped into gear, and take your first breathes underwater. Then you'll get to experience swimming on scuba, be introduced to a few skills, and have a great time exploring the pool with one of our PADI pros.


The Scuba Gear You Use

All the equipment you will need is included in a Discover Scuba Diving experience. You'll use all the basic scuba gear including a mask, fins, a buoyancy control device that carries your weights and scuba cylinder, regulators to breathe from, and a submersible pressure gauge. All you need is your towel and a bathing suit.
