DISCOVER SCUBA DIVING
Have you ever wondered what it's like to breathe underwater? If you want to find out but aren't quite ready to take the plunge into a certification course, Discover Scuba Diving will let you try scuba to see if you like it. SUGAR LAND DIVE CENTER offers Discover Scuba Diving on demand in our heated, indoor pool. While not an actual scuba certification, during the Discover Scuba Diving experience, you'll learn how to use scuba equipment and get an introduction to what it takes to explore the underwater world.

The Fun Part
There is nothing like breathing underwater for the very first time. It takes a little getting used to but after a few minutes of awestruck wonder, most participants realise how easy scuba diving really is. The biggest challenge for SUGAR LAND DIVE CENTER is coaxing Discover Scuba Diving participants out of the water when the program is over. The fun part? It's all fun! Plus, you can get credit! If your Discover Scuba Diving program includes an actual scuba dive in open water, your experience may count toward PADI Scuba Diver or Open Water Diver certification, putting you a step ahead of the game when you decide to go for it.
What You Learn
You learn the basics you need to dive under the direct supervision of a PADI Professional. You'll also discover that you really can breathe underwater and determine if the unique world of Scuba is for you. You will:
- Experience the ease and feel of wearing scuba equipment while moving around underwater
- Get the chance to breathe underwater and determine your comfortable level with diving
- Learn some basic skills and safety rules that will carry over to your full scuba certification course when you take the next step
The Scuba Gear You Use
All the equipment you will need is included in a Discover Scuba Diving experience. You'll use all the basic scuba gear including a mask and snorkel, fins, a wetsuit, a buoyancy compensating device (BCD) that carries your weights and scuba tank, a scuba regulator to breathe from and instrumentation to monitor depth and air supply.
The Learning Materials You Need To Bring
Just your willingness and undivided attention.
Prerequisites
To participate in the Discover Scuba Diving program, you must be at least 10 years old.
