Water activity
Discover Scuba Diving – Single Tank
Test the waters with basic scuba skills and one guided open-water dive.
Overview
What this experience is about
If you are interested in scuba diving but unsure about enrolling in a full certification class, Discover Scuba Diving is the perfect way to test the waters. A PADI certified instructor provides scuba gear, explains basic scuba skills, answers questions, leads a short skills practice, and then guides a single-tank open-water dive when conditions and readiness allow.
Plan
What to expect
- Review safety basics, equalizing, breathing, and simple hand signals.
- Practice beginner skills in controlled water with your instructor.
- Head to the reef for a supervised first scuba experience if conditions and readiness allow.
Before you go
Requirements
- No certification or experience needed.
- Comfort in the water recommended.
- Scuba diving requires a minimum level of health and fitness. Chronic health conditions, certain medications, recent surgery, asthma, epilepsy, diabetes, or heart/lung conditions may require written physician approval before diving.
- The operator may cancel or adjust any activity because of weather, sea conditions, guest fitness, intoxication, age, safety concerns, or circumstances beyond reasonable control.
Important notes
Safety, weather, and booking fit come first.
Every water day is confirmed around real conditions, guest comfort, and the requirements for the selected activity or course.
- Booking requests are reviewed by the crew before the activity, course, or payment handoff is confirmed.
- Scuba guests may need certification proof, a completed medical form, physician clearance, referral paperwork, or eLearning/eRecord completion depending on the service.
- Weather, sea conditions, cruise traffic, and operational needs can require a time change, safer alternate plan, or reschedule.
- After scuba, plan enough time before flying or high-altitude travel; the team can advise based on your dive profile.
