Discover Scuba Diving in Phuket is for beginners who have never dived before but want to experience the underwater world. We will take you to explore underwater environments within a depth limit of 12 meters, with professional supervision at all times. Discover Scuba Diving lets you try diving without taking a full 3 day beginner course.

What to expect in this Discover Scuba Diving 

Our professional diving instructor will be your underwater guide. They will teach you the basics of scuba diving, underwater communication, and equipment use for shallow dives (up to 12 meters). Throughout the day, you'll complete 2 or 3 fun dives, getting a great look at the underwater world. Your instructor will stay by your side, helping you adjust your buoyancy until you can move on your own. If you struggle with kicking, they can assist you.

Most people get the hang of it within 10-15 minutes and start diving independently. If not, our instructors will provide all the help you need. Once you follow the basic diving instructions, you'll be able to explore underwater on your own, with the guide always within arm's reach to assist if necessary.

We follow the PADI guidelines and standards so you no you’ll be kept perfectly safe at all times. You will get a completion certificate at the end of the day but the programme does not qualify you to dive on your own. You will however get to know exactly what it feels like to breathe underwater and so decide if you want to get certified in the future. We believe that after you dive with us, Local Dive Thailand, you will look forward to diving more!
