Introduction to Scuba Diving

 

 

 

Have you ever looked out at the ocean and wondered just what’s under there? Maybe you’ve gone snorkeling and gotten a taste of what it might be like to dive. Well, you ain’t seen anything yet! Imagine looking down through clear water as you descend to the coral covered ocean floor. A ray glides by, and fish come up to explore you. A seal darts through the kelp forest, and along the bottom, a giant horseshoe crab cuttles along. You hover weightlessly above it and try to slow your breathing so you can stay down longer and explore. Upon completion of the classroom and pool requirements you will receive a referral. With this referral and additional open water dives ($50-100 extra) you can receive a PADI Basic Scuba Certification. You will be able to schedule open water dive classes with any company that offers PADI certification. Price includes classroom and pol sessions. Equipment is provided by pool sessions only.
