Before you hop in the open water, you need to be brought up to speed with the basics of scuba training. Our classes will help you become familiar with the process of diving, accustom yourself to the safety preparations and knowledge you’ll need to stay safe and satisfied under the waves. You will also be briefed on the various creatures and environments you will encounter while scuba diving, as well as the proper and improper ways to interact with these elements. These classes are required if you want to engage with our beginner scuba tours, as safety and knowledge is our top priority when it comes to new scuba divers. With this knowledge, you will be soon be ready to enter the oceans and dive!

Proper Planning

In this class, you’ll discover where and when are the proper times to dive.

Learning the water temperatures in regards to the current season is also important, as cold water can be dangerous!
