PADI DISCOVER SCUBA DIVING EXPERIENCE

There is no greater adventure than scuba diving! Interacting with the underwater world is always fascinating and exciting. Many people are curious about diving and have the desire to experience and enjoy the beautiful coral reefs, colorful fish and exciting marine life.

The PADI Discover Scuba Diving (DSD) Experience is designed to provide you with a safe and enjoyable introduction to diving.
The DSD is available by reservation only, and can be done various ways:

• as a pool only experience
• as a pool and dive experience with one shallow 15’-20’ dive
• as a pool and dive experience with two shallow 30’ dives

Your entire diving experience will be conducted under the direct supervision of an experienced Pro Dive, PADI Scuba Instructor, and you will have the opportunity to do a scuba dive on a coral reef in the tropical waters of Fort Lauderdale.

Upon successful completion of the program, you will be able to make additional supervised dives within two weeks of finishing this experience. NOTE: This is not a scuba certification, nor does it qualify you to scuba dive without supervision by a PADI professional.
