Overview

This experience will be like snorkeling but on steroids! If you like to snorkel this introduction to scuba diving is the perfect next step to explore the underwater world. You will learn the basics of diving from your knowledgeable instructors who will lead you on a guided tour of St. Andrew's State Park or a local fresh water spring if Gulf conditions are unfavorable. This is a great class for people comfortable in the water that want to explore a little deeper.

Itinerary

The discover scuba class will give participants a brief introduction into the world of diving. Students will learn about the effects of diving on the body and how to use the gear before being led on a dive in confined water at the State Park. (Students must know how to swim). Before we start the class each student will be issued an eLearning account that delivers the academics curriculum in an easy to understand format that you can complete at your own pace. (40 minutes to an hour). This way your time with us is spend on physically learning the dive gear and in the water and not in a classroom.

Please note we are not the cheap quick version of trying scuba. We want this experience to be the gateway drug to a life addicted to scuba diving and underwater exploration.

I always wanted to dive but never wanted to get certified to try it. Then I saw discover scuba. Read about it and realize this was what I was looking for. So the day of the dive got there that morning met up with Derrick and he went over everything thing with me and then we went to the park and went over all the safety stuff and when I felt comfortable we went diving. Best experience know I will half to get certified this was amazing

Had an amazing time. Bailey was an excellent instructor. We dove out by the jetties out of St. Andrews State Park. Got to see some amazing marine life, including a few Batfish, Hermit crabs and my favourite, a moon jellyfish!! Looking forward to going again!!

The instructor was great. Part of our family was nervous prior but quickly calmed. An added benefit of scuba lessons, now I can also snorkel much better and for much longer. We were able to snorkel after the lesson. That was a lot of fun too.
