The program is an experience and not a dive qualification. It is designed for people who want to give SCUBA diving a try before committing to the entire Open Water Diver Course.
If you decide to go ahead with the full PADI Openwater Divers course immediately after completing the Discover Scuba Diving experience, we can give you credit for already having completed the first pool dive and the first sea dive. Ask us how this works!
During your DSD, you will have an introduction to the theory of diving with a theory session. You will then spend some time in our onsite pool where you will get familiar with your SCUBA gear and learn some of the vital skills while having fun in the pool at the same time.
Finally, we will take you on a sea dive at a suitable dive site around the peninsula. You will not be doing any skills on the sea dive, simply enjoying the marine life and touring around underwater.
