Try SCUBA diving with our £25 ‘Try-Dive’ taster session
A Try-Dive can help you save time and money by finding out in advance if you like diving. Costing just £25, first-timers can experience the thrill of breathing underwater for the first time!
We can cater for larger groups; such as Scouts, Cadets, Round Table, Clubs etc.
Team and/or family events are also popular – give us a shout!
A typical Try Dive session, lasting about 45 minutes, involves poolside tuition on diving techniques and equipment, followed by a SCUBA dive in our pool with a BSAC-qualified instructor. We run Try-Dives most Wednesday evenings at Hall Cross School, Thorne Road, Doncaster – all you will need is a swimming costume or shorts, and a T-shirt to wear in the water. We’ll provide the rest!
Your Instructor will run you through a few basic safety procedures along with a brief explanation of your SCUBA equipment. Once you are comfortable and happy, we can try swimming underwater and allow you to experience the weightless underwater environment. If you are confident enough and, more importantly, you want to, we will teach you some more basic skills such as barrel rolls and somersaults!
Please note – Before your Try Dive you will be asked to read and complete a medical form – you can save time by downloading and completing the Try Dive medical and responsibility declaration in advance of your session.
Anyone wishing to partake in a try dive who knowingly has Diabetes or perforated ear drum can partake but must stay in the shallow end.
Anyone who knowingly has any of the other illnesses must seek specialist advice prior to signing up.
