What's the Discover Scuba experience all about?

The Discover Scuba program lets you experience the thrill of scuba diving under the supervision of a professional DTC scuba diving instructor in our comfortable indoor pool. During your adventure, you'll learn some basic concepts and scuba skills after which you'll don scuba gear and try scuba diving for real. When you participate the DTC Discover Scuba program, you discover excitement and adventure - freedom and serenity. Nothing compares to the "weightless" exhilaration of breathing underwater. Only a diver knows the feeling!

Please note that this is not a scuba certification course, but rather an opportunity to try scuba diving and to find out if it's for you. However, some of what you learn during Discover Scuba can be applied to the Open Water Diver certification course.

What will I do during the Discover Scuba experience?

After watching a short video presentation and a briefing from your instructor, you will head to the pool. Your instructor will help you don your scuba gear, give you some instruction on the fundamentals of diving technique, and then you will have plenty of time to experience the thrill of breathing underwater. After getting comfortable in the shallow end of the pool, head into the deep end for more diving excitement. One of our professional instructors will be right there with you every step of the way.

How long will the Discover Scuba experience take?

Get ready to dive today. After viewing a short video and a briefing by your instructor, you'll enter the water quickly and begin your scuba adventure. The Discover Scuba experience will last about two hours; with about 45 minutes in the classroom, and 1 hour in the pool.
