Never dived before? PADI Discover Scuba Diving lets you breathe underwater for the first time in south-ari-atoll's warm, clear lagoon, surrounded by reef fish and coral. An instructor stays at your side the whole time on this no-certification taster.
PADI Discover Scuba Diving is a supervised experience, not a certification, and your skills can later credit toward the PADI Open Water course.
Your first dive takes place in South Ari's sheltered house-reef shallows at around 5-6m, where warm 26-30C water and calm conditions are gentle for beginners. Even here you can expect clouds of reef fish, healthy coral and maybe a passing turtle.
Flights and accommodation aren’t part of the course price, here’s how to book them around your dates.
