What happens on your first scuba session
Pre your visit - you will be allocated a digital kit to work online through the theory of your session coming up. You will need to complete online a medical declaration to show you are fit to dive and also complete some other bits of paperwork before getting in the water.
Coming to site on your first day - when you arrive you will sit with your instructor going over what you have completed online and a briefing going over what it is you will do on your first session and kit set up
Heading in to the water - once we have gone through the kit, here comes the fun part! We head into our training area, which is a confined and you can stand up easily in the first level with your head out of the water so you are eased into it nice and easy! We will complete some skills to get you used to the kit and and gain your confidence in the water and so you can feel the amazing effects of what breathing underwater is really like!
Once you are confident in the shallower part of the training area, we will take you to the next level down which is still confined but is 2m deep instead. We will go back over the skills you have just learnt to become more confident in them and then its time to go into open water!
You will head out of the training area following a rope which you can hold on to to stead yourself and this rope will take you to another training platform which you can get yourself stead on, take in your surroundings and celebrate your first open water dive!
Here you will get to enjoy properly what its like to feel completely weightless, where nothing else matters other than the calm that nothing else other than being underwater will give you!
You can then either choose to follow the next rope down to the next level where you can see our mini boat wreck and meet the resident pirate Blackbeard or we can head back up into the training cage.
Congratulations! You have finished your first in water session.
Warning - this session may give you a new addiction!
