There are lots of reasons for learning to dive. For some people, it’s the realization of a lifelong dream. For others, it’s a chance to take up an activity that’s already enjoyed by a good friend. You might be headed for a destination that’s famous for its diving, and the opportunity to try it is too good to pass up. Many couples learn to dive so they can enjoy scuba on their honeymoons … and some even go so far as to get married underwater. Divers visit exciting destinations, and enjoy the company of others in comfortable surroundings. Diving is easy to learn and is a life-long, healthy activity suitable for the entire family. Some say diving has changed their lives forever, letting them see a different part of our world in ways they never imagined There are almost as many reasons to dive as there are divers, but there’s only one good way to learn, and that is under the guidance of a professional instructor, certified by an agency that adheres to the minimal training requirements set by the Recreational Scuba Training Council, an industry standards group.

You can become a certified diver in a very short period of time, or you can take your time and learn at your own pace. Times can be shortened by the diver by reading ahead or taking private instructor time for confined water or open water learning. Underwater Adventure can cater to all your learning needs.

All seminars and pool dive sessions can easily be completed in a matter of four days and additional pool training is available for an additional cost. The course fee includes multimedia material and manual, seminar and pool diving sessions, all rental equipment and the certification card fee.

Open Water Scuba courses are typically divided into three parts: information development, pool (or "confined water") learning, and open water learning. Information Development (Book Work) -Topics such as; getting more acquainted with the critters you are likely to encounter, planning for a safe and enjoyable dive, and how pressure affects you. The educational programs are time tested and include many different ways to learn – reading, watching videos and even taking a short quiz to reinforce what you’ve learned. You’ll find that no matter what your learning style, Underwater Adventures' utilizes educational programs will make it easy for you. Most scuba classes will use a collection of educational materials to help make learning easier. Confined Water (Pool Work)- learning gives the diver a chance to try out their equipment and become comfortable under the watchful eye of one of our highly qualified scuba instructors. Our Instructors are very helpful in making you comfortable in the water, starting in the pool. The pool or confined water is also the best place to learn the techniques that will keep your diving experience safe and enjoyable. Open Water Checkout (Certification Dive)-Finally, you’ll have a chance to put your pool learning experiences to work for you in open water. What a fantastic experience! Using the equipment and techniques you have learned from the pool sessions, you’ll see the critters and the scenery, explore the area with your instructor showing the way, and complete the simple training needed to become a certified scuba diver!

Learning to dive is more affordable than you might have expected.

There are three major cost components to open water training: Equipment – the use of gear (other than mask, fins, and snorkel, which you usually provide), and the cost of air fills for the scuba tanks you’ll be using, Coursework and Confined Water Sessions – the training you‘ll be doing at your dive center’s facility, or at the facility they use, and Open Water Sessions – the real-world diving that you’ll do at an actual dive site.

If you look at what that sort of activity costs, and compare it to the cost of learning to dive and going diving, you may well be surprised at just how affordable your diving adventure can be.
