General Questions

1Do I need to know how to swim to take scuba lessons?

Yes — basic swimming skills and comfort in the water are required. You don’t have to be an athlete, but you should be able to swim at least 200 yards and tread water for 10 minutes.

2What is the minimum age to start scuba training?

Most entry-level scuba certifications start at age 10. Private lessons are great for kids and teens because we can go at their pace.

3Do I need to be in perfect physical shape to dive?

Not at all! As long as you have no major health conditions that prevent physical activity, you can learn to dive. A quick medical questionnaire is completed before starting.

4Is scuba diving safe?

Yes — when done correctly. You’ll learn all the essential safety procedures and practice them in a controlled environment before heading to open water.

5Do you teach complete beginners?

Absolutely! Our courses are designed to accommodate all experience levels — including complete beginners. If you’ve never tried scuba diving before, our Open Water Diver Certification course is the perfect place to start. You’ll learn the fundamentals of scuba safety, equipment use, and underwater skills in a relaxed, supervised environment before completing your open water dives.

All training is conducted by certified instructors who specialize in working with new divers, ensuring a safe, comfortable, and enjoyable first experience underwater.
