Discovery Scuba Diving

It’s an introduction, not a certification: This is important to understand. Discover Scuba Diving is designed to let you try scuba diving in a safe and controlled environment. It doesn’t certify you as a diver. If you enjoy it and want to dive independently, you’ll need to take a full certification course like the SSI and PADI Open Water Diver course.
