Description
If you want to find out but aren’t quite ready to take the plunge into a certification course, this tour allows you to try it first. You will be transferred from your pick up point to the diving centre, arriving around 9:30 am.
You will then complete along with your instructor all the necessary paperwork, theory and certification proving you have accomplished the course. After completing the required paperwork, you will need to watch a short video that describes the basic principles of scuba diving, all about the equipment you will use, some signals to communicate underwater, and the basic diving skills. A briefing from your teacher is following, who will then equip you with every necessary part of the scuba unit.
Once you are fully suited up, a pool practice to the scuba’s basics and hand signals follows. As soon as you feel comfortable being underwater and complete the training, you will begin diving into the sea. It will be a 30 minutes dive to a maximum depth of 12 metres.
After this diving experience, you are free to continue to the next level of courses: Scuba Diver Course or the Open Water Diver Course, but this will happen on another adventurous day!
