Discover Scuba Diving

The Discover Scuba Diving experience quickly moves people into the open water environment. After straight-forward knowledge and skill development sessions, participants dive in small groups at a local dive site. Discover Scuba Diving also links directly to the Open Water Diver course. Those who have completed the Discover Scuba Diving experience earn credit toward Confined Water Dive One and Open Water Dive One. This is possible because Confined Water Dive One is the same as the Discover Scuba Diving Water Skills Introduction and Development Session, and the Discover Scuba Diving dive now equals Open Water Dive One.

Overview:

The Discover Scuba Diving experience contains three parts —

Knowledge Development, where participants learn basic dive safety information and overview skills they’ll use during their open water dive.

Waterskills Development which introduces essential dive skills, such as mask clearing, regulator clearing and alternate air source use. Participants complete skills and gain confidence in confined water before diving in open water.

Open Water Dive, which is the focus of the program. Participants explore a local dive site under the guidance of a PADI Instructor.

PREREQUISITES:
