Discover Diving Course
The simplest and easiest way to get wet. If you are at all interested in
diving just Contact us, and arrange a meeting.
After a short chat to explain the rules of diving, you will be introduced to
the sensation of breathing underwater. Your instructor will then show you a
little marine life, without you ever going out of your depth. This course is
our cheapest option and is only meant to give you a taste of what diving is
about. Normally you spend around 10 to 15 mins underwater. After that, there
will be no stopping you!
Discover Scuba Diving
The next step is to evaluate how much
time you have to go diving. If you have the time, we recommend taking the
Open Water or
Advanced courses, which will give you the benefit of internationally
recognised certification. Without a card, the amount and type of diving you
can do is limited.
For people in this situation, or for those with too little time, we
recommend you take the Discover Scuba Diving Programme. Discover Scuba
Diving lasts around half a day. It
consists of watching a short video explaining a little about the most
important rules of diving. Your instructor will then chat to you about
anything you didn't understand and explain what you'll be doing later.
Before going out, you will be introduced to using the equipment and certain
techniques to cope with any problems in an area of confined water. This
means you can get used to being underwater gradually and in water not out of
your depth. Once you are comfortable, your instructor will take you off on a
nice shallow dive then bring you back to shore.
At this point, you will have two options for further diving. The first
is to enrol in a full Open Water Course and
get a licence - your Discover Scuba Diving may be credited towards
qualification if you enrol within a couple of days after your Discover Scuba
diving experience. This will bring a discount in the price of the Open Water
Course. The second option is that you can keep diving with direct
professional supervision. However, the maximum period you can do this
without repeating the course is two weeks. Due to the level of supervision
involved, you will notice that follow up dives are a little more expensive
than those offered to fully qualified divers.
