PADI - Discover Scuba Diving
If you only have a short time frame on your vacation in Bali or want to try diving before committing to the diving course, PADI Discover Scuba Diving is an introductory experience that allows you to see the amazing underwater life as well as to make your first bubbles.
PADI Discover Scuba Diving in Bali is not an actual PADI Scuba certification, but great experience where you’ll learn how to use scuba equipment in shallow water of Padangbai area and get a quick and easy introduction to what it takes to explore the underwater world.
The idea of learning to dive is as tempting as it is exciting for every wanna be scuba diver. After all, breathing underwater directly contradicts of our most basic survival instincts. The DSD experience in Bali “mini diving course” teaches new divers basic scuba guidelines and skills under the direct supervision of a PADI professional instructor. The DSD will start with dry briefing, than you get wet while you and your instructor will proced to pool session with all the scuba equipment to learn basic diving skills. After the pool session, you will go on an actual dive at one of our many Bali dive sites to a maximum depth of 12 meters. Usually we do shallow water entries for gradual decent. Mostly you will be feeling excited but quite comfortable as a result of the swimming pool session before.
Of course one of the purposes of DSD program is to encourage those who are on the doubt about diving to help them to decide and sign up for their full PADI scuba diving course in Bali.
