Intro to Scuba Diving
Always wanted to try Scuba Diving, but not sure if it's for you? Or don't have time to take the full certification course? Then this is for you! This is a non-certification experience designed to introduce non-certified divers to the underwater world. After a bit of training in shallow water, your instructor will take you on a scuba dive in controlled conditions to a maximum depth of 12m (40ft). This is a great way to get the experience and maybe start your underwater journey!
All equipment rental included. Free photos and videos of your dive too!
