Discover Scuba
Discover Scuba has been designed by PADI to introduce people to the exciting experience of scuba diving. Participants spend most of their time in the water, trying scuba equipment under the supervision of dive professionals.

We begin by introducing the basic rules of scuba diving. Then we gear up with the help of the staff and get in the pool to blow some bubbles and enjoy the underwater world. At the end of the session the students will receive certificates of completion for having been introduced to the underwater environment.

Discover Scuba can be great primary activities or as a
component of a:

corporate team-building event
backyard barbeque
aquatics curriculum

Overview

The PADI Discover Scuba Diving program introduces people to scuba diving in a highly supervised and relaxed manner. It dispels common misconceptions about scuba by letting individuals try it for themselves.

Minimum age: 10 years old

Under the guidance of a PADI professional, new divers learn basic safety concepts, put on equipment and swim around underwater in a closely supervised environment.

The PADI Discover Scuba Diving program can take place in a swimming pool, protected confined open water area and at an open water dive site — anywhere an appropriate, positive introduction to scuba diving is possible.

After trying scuba, many new divers may decide to repeat the experience. If not immediately, then on other occasions or in different areas. Others will choose to pursue certification by enrolling in a PADI Scuba Diver or Open Water Diver course. The desired result is to excite people about scuba diving and encourage additional participation.

When certain requirements are met, new divers may earn credit toward PADI Scuba Diver and Open Water Diver certification.
