Try Scuba Diving

Experience the underwater world with the SSI Try Scuba Diving program at ChrisDiving. This introductory session is designed for individuals aged 8 and above, offering a safe and controlled environment to discover the basics of scuba diving. Conducted entirely in a pool, the program focuses on essential skills and safety protocols under the direct supervision of a certified SSI Instructor. You'll learn how to breathe underwater and become comfortable with scuba equipment, all within a session lasting approximately 40 minutes. Upon successful completion, you'll receive an SSI Try Scuba recognition card, a great first step into the diving community.

This program is an excellent opportunity for families, couples, or anyone curious about scuba diving without the commitment of a full certification. It provides a gentle introduction to the sensation of breathing underwater and the initial magic of the marine environment. ChrisDiving ensures all necessary gear is provided, and the session is led by a qualified instructor, guaranteeing a secure and enjoyable first encounter with scuba. The pool-only nature of this experience makes it accessible and stress-free for beginners.

While this initial experience is pool-based, it serves as a perfect stepping stone for those who wish to continue their diving education. Many participants find the Try Scuba experience so rewarding that they decide to pursue further certifications, such as the SSI Basic Diver or Open Water Diver courses offered by ChrisDiving. This allows you to build upon your initial discovery and seamlessly transition into more advanced training.

ChrisDiving enhances your introductory experience by providing refreshments such as water, soft drinks, cake, and fruit, ensuring you remain comfortable throughout and after your pool session. This thoughtful inclusion makes the entire package a complete and memorable introduction to scuba diving. The program is structured to gauge your interest effectively, and if you enjoy it, the program fee can often be credited towards more comprehensive SSI courses, simplifying your path to becoming a certified diver.
