What Is Discover Scuba Diving?
If you’re new to scuba diving and not sure where to start, our Discover Scuba Diving program is the perfect introduction. Our experienced instructors will guide you through the basics of scuba diving in a safe and controlled environment so you can learn without feeling overwhelmed. We’ll cover everything from how to breathe underwater to communicating with hand signals.
Once you feel comfortable with the equipment and skills, we’ll take you on a fun dive around some of the most beautiful shipwrecks in Carlisle Bay. You’ll get to see colorful fish, vibrant corals, and maybe even some sea turtles! Our instructors will be with you every step of the way, providing guidance and support so you can focus on enjoying your dive.
At Dive West Side Scuba, we’re passionate about sharing our love of scuba diving with others. We believe that everyone should have the chance to explore the underwater world, regardless of their experience level. Our team is here to help you discover the beauty and excitement of scuba diving.
