Discover Scuba Experience
Revised 27 9 05 ![]()
Overview
The PADI Discover Scuba Diving program introduces people to scuba diving in a highly supervised and relaxed manner. It dispels common misconceptions about scuba by allowing individuals try it for themselves. Under the guidance of a PADI professional, new divers learn basic safety concepts, put on equipment and swim around underwater in a closely supervised
environment. The PADI Discover Scuba Diving program can take place in a swimming pool, protected confined open water area and at an open water dive site anywhere an appropriate and positive introduction to scuba diving is possible.
After trying scuba, many new divers may decide to repeat the experience on other occasions or in different areas. Others will choose to pursue certification by enrolling in the PADI Open Water Diver course.
When certain requirements are met, new divers may earn credit towards the PADI Open Water Diver certification.
