This location is perfect for brand new divers, giving you the time needed to get comfortable and relaxed while making sure all the standards for the first 2 dives are met. On the dives you will see fish, coral and sponges for the first time you put your face in the water.

Day 2, you will join us on the boat to complete dives 3 & 4. Having the first 2 dives under your belt, you will be ready to enjoy the boat and meet the max depth limit of 60ft for your last two certification dives.
