There are different scuba
diving experiences you can try before committing to your certification. You might not be sure how you will like diving underwater and to make a financial commitment can to something you have never experienced before can be daunting. Island Divers Hawaii offers a few different programs to give you your first experience of breathing underwater without being certified.
If you are not confident yet to dive in the ocean you can give it a try in the pool first with our Bubble Maker Experience. This course allows you to slowly descend into the shallow end and practice your breathing techniques. Once you are comfortable, you then slowly swim to the deep end of the pool to practice a few diving skills, to make you feel more confident in the water, and a few games to learn how to control your movements underwater.
The next option is a Discover Scuba Experience which combines the confined water training in the pool with your first instructor supervised ocean dives. Going into your first ocean dives you will have the skills to know how to keep calm and comfortable while enjoying the amazing aquatic world around you.
If you are comfortable in the water and just cannot wait to swim with the fish, you can jump right in with Island Divers Hawaii Intro Dives. We teach you the few intro skills like clearing your mask, recovering your regulator, and clearing your regulator right there on the anchor line before you descend for your first amazing instructor supervised 20 minute dive! After you return to the boat and have a snack, you can jump back in with your instructor and enjoy another dive without worrying about any skill training you accomplished on the first dive; it’s just fun diving from there!
Now you are ready and you know exactly what you have been missing! So on to your certification and here at Island Divers Hawaii we have the best price on the island for your Open Water Certification, only $195!
