PADI Discover Scuba Diving, Intro Dive- Try Scuba Diving
This is a single afternoon intro to scuba diving experience which will have you enjoying yourself in the water in no time!
Every afternoon, we start with a thorough briefing covering how scuba diving equipment works and what will happen when we go underwater. We explain some safe diving practices and describe the marine life we expect to see.
Next we take the dive boat out to a shallow bay such as Aow Leuk or the Japanese Gardens. We'll begin by demonstrating some skills in very shallow water such how to clear your mask and regulator. You'll practice these skills under the close supervision of your instructor, then head out to explore the bay.
You can dive right down to a maximum depth of 12 metres - expect to see lots of colorful reef fish such as butterfly, angelfish and longfin bannerfish and a vast variety of bright corals. Your dive should last for around 45 minutes depending on how relaxed you are. You have the option to make an additional dive on the same afternoon for 1000 baht extra. This will be at an even more adventurous dive site, such as Twins or White Rock.
If you decide that's enough diving for one day you can check out the snorkeling or relax on the boat.
If you really enjoy your dives and want more, this experience can be used to credit towards the PADI Open Water Diver Course.
At DJL Diving, if you want to continue with the PADI Open Water course you'll just pay the difference, and complete an additional 3 days to qualify as a certified diver [i.e. there's no penalty for doing the try dive first].
