Discover Scuba Diving Key Largo

The Discover Scuba Diving course is one of our favorites. It’s a pretty cool moment watching someone take their first breathe underwater. As certified divers we all remember our first breathes underwater. Many of us have the same story… Did a Discover Scuba course in the Florida Keys and we’ve been hooked ever since.

Course Description

The Discover Scuba Diving course enables you to try out scuba diving for a day. There is a knowledge development session, pool session, and then open water dives on the reef. This experience is real scuba diving. After completing the knowledge and pool session you will go out on the boat on the afternoon dive charter and dive the reef with the certified divers. If you have always wanted to try scuba diving this will probably be the highlight of your vacation.

Your day starts in the morning with a knowledge review. Your instructor will explain the core fundamentals of scuba diving. Safety guidelines, scuba diving gear, and basic techniques will be discussed. You will have plenty of opportunities to ask questions and discuss any questions you may have. Class sizes are small and it is a very laid back super fun experience.

Once in the pool you will get to put on a set of scuba gear that we provide. Then you will have the ability to take your first couple of breathes underwater. A series of required skills will be demonstrated and practiced. You need to be able to clear your mask in case water gets inside. Regulator recovery will also be practiced. The gauges on your equipment will be explained, you will do some swimming in the pool, and then its off to the boat.

The Discover Scuba Diving course includes 2 dives in the afternoon. You will go on the afternoon scuba diving charter with your instructor and other certified divers. Once on the reef you will have a chance to go scuba diving for the first time! The Florida Keys is a great place to try diving for the first time.
