Frequently asked questions

You do not need to be an Olympic swimmer to take a DSD; however, you should feel comfortable in the water and be able to maintain yourself at the surface.
The Discover Scuba Diving experience takes place in a swimming pool or in any body of water that has pool-like conditions. This means good visibility and calm conditions, so you can have the most comfortable experience possible. There is also an optional open water dive for those who want to take it. The open water dive is a great opportunity to see the local aquatic life!
First of all, it’s important to know that you will not go any deeper than you feel comfortable with. The maximum depth for a Discover Scuba Diving experience is 6 meters (20 feet) for the initial pool session and 12 meters (40 feet) if you do the optional open water dive, but that does not mean you have to go that deep.
Discover Scuba Diving experiences are conducted by PADI Instructors, if you are going to also do the optional open water dive,or qualified PADI Divemasters may conduct the experience if you are only completing pool dive. PADI Pros undergo rigorous training and exams to ensure that they can safely accompany and teach those who are new to diving. Check out the list of our instructors under the About tab on our website.
