Do you want to Try Scuba Diving?

If you have 2 or 3 hour available? Are 10 years old? Then you can try scuba diving, it's that simple!

Have you ever wanted to go underwater and see all the exciting fish and coral? After all, we have all seen amazing fish and coral on TV or at the movies, but have you ever tried scuba diving with them? If not, then now is your chance! The PADI Discover Scuba Diving program is a quick and easy way to dive in a swimming pool or off the beach. Or better still, spend the day out on the boat at the nearby islands and dive in the Andaman Sea. And see the amazing marine life that Phuket and Thailand are so famous for!

How long does it take?

Our PADI Indepth Discover Scuba Diving program is usually run over 1 day, but it can be run over 2-3 hours easily enough. However, the best way to try scuba diving diving is to go out on the dive boat. This way you can make 1, 2 or 3 scuba dives in the sea. We usually go to the Racha Yai or Racha Noi dive sites because these are some of our best dive sites for your first scuba dives. They are in sheltered bays with easy access to sandy bottoms shallow enough to stand up in.

However, if you don't have much time, or don't like boats, then you can do the same thing in a swimming pool or off a local beach. We have Kata Beach, Ao Sane Beach and Ya Nui Beach just a short distance from Indepth Dive Centre. These are the best Phuket beaches to do your first scuba dives from for the first time. Consequently you can try scuba diving in just a 1/2 day.

How is the program organised?

The first thing you will do is listen to a simple briefing by your PADI Instructor. In addition, you will be given a PADI Discover Scuba Diving Booklet which is yours to keep. This covers the basic information you need to know. There is also a quick quiz of 10 questions for you to complete. The first thing you will when you try scuba is learn a few simple skills. We do these in a shallow water where you can easily stand up if you want to. We do this is in a sheltered bay off the beach or in a swimming pool. Then once you are comfortable with that, you will go on some scuba dives at REAL dive sites with your instructor! Here you will experience some spectacular Phuket dive sites.

These reefs are full of the amazing tropical fish and corals typical of The Andaman Sea. These are the same reefs that certified divers travel to Phuket and Thailand to dive on. And you will be pleased to know that the dive sites we take you to are ideal for people to try scuba diving. This is because these dive sites have some of the best marine life at shallow depths. Thus, you will have a "full-on" diving experience!
