Ever wondered what the big fuss was all about - why did Island Vinnie set up shop in the Andamans, why millions of people travel to all sorts of remote destinations in the world to dive, why people brave deep shipwrecks, frozen lakes and strong currents just to be underwater?

The half-day Discover Scuba Diving program is your ticket to checking out the underwater world - no prior experience or special pre-requisites needed.

In this program, one of our dive instructors goes over the basic theory of diving with you in a short pre-dive briefing. Then, in shallow water, you don your scuba gear and become familiar with how it works. When you are ready, your instructor takes you for a dive. He or she will handle all the equipment, etc - all you have to do is relax and take in the amazing underwater world.

If you like what diving is all about, you can then choose to go on and do a full Open Water Course, where you'll learn more about diving theory, as well as a lot of practical dive skills. 4 dives are also included in this, and at the end of this course, you receive a certification card - valid for a lifetime of fun and adventure. The entire fees for the Discover Scuba Diving program can be credited towards certification.

Be warned - diving is addicting. It makes people switch careers, move to remote islands and just dive, dive dive!
