During the two-hour Try Scuba class, attendees learn the basics of underwater breathing in a shallow, controlled pool. The two-hour Refresher Scuba course is designed for already certified divers who haven't been under the sea in a while, and requires students to bring or rent their own equipment. Discover Snorkel acclimates swimmers as young as 5 to snorkeling in the swimming pool during a two-hour class. Click here to see class schedules.
The 22-hour intensive open-water diving course includes classroom instruction and pool dives, teaching pupils need-to-know knowledge including how to operate masks and tanks, how to dive safely, and how to politely decline scholarship offers from schools of fish. Students in every open-water class must supply their own mask, fins, snorkel, and boots. After finishing the course, each new diver receives a certification card, which attests to mastery of the submarine realm.
