Scuba Diving
Posted by admint
Ever wanted to try scuba diving in a safe environment? Then jump in - here’s your chance to join in this exciting session held in a swimming pool. You’ll be ready to enter the water for your scuba dive adventure after a short video and briefing session. Strap on your scuba gear and dive down to a maximum of six metres. What’s more, some of the skills you practice may be credited to the PADI Open Water Diver certification.
What happens on the day
As part of a group you will be given initial classroom instruction, and then strap on the equipment and jump in the pool to experience the fun and exhilaration of breathing underwater. You’ll have the chance to dive to a maximum of 6 metres (20 feet) depending on the depth of the pool. Following the session in the pool, you will be presented with your certificate which will count towards the PADI Open Water Diver certification should you choose to continue with your training.
