Discover Scuba Diver Course


For those who have never tried this before or perhaps have been snorkelling, this course is the first part of your diving career and we know you will love it. We start beside our own swimming pool where you will be taught the fundamentals of your dive equipment, safety aspects of diving and a few of the basic skills, after this we will practice our diving around the pool to get ready for the sea!

We will then take you, normally the next morning, to a beautiful little cove a few minutes from the centre, accompanied by our instructors to put into practice the diving skills you have learnt in the pool, here you will be able to dive in the calm and crystal sea to visit the little octopus in their houses and see millions of fish of all colours.

Once you have completed this you will be given a certificate that qualifies you for your first part in the next course you take ‘Open Water’ and will also be discounted against this course!
