Try Dives is an introductory activity designed so that anyone can experience the sensation of breathing underwater and moving in a real marine environment. It is not a certification course, but a first contact with scuba diving.

Then comes the most awaited moment: the dive in the sea, where you can enjoy the feeling of weightlessness and observe the marine life up close.

What does the Try Dives experience include?
A complete Try Dives is not just about “getting in the water”. It includes everything you need to enjoy the experience with confidence, from preparation to the final dive. In most PADI centers, and especially at Dive Academy, the activity takes place in three phases:
- Brief theoretical session: the instructor explains how the equipment works, basic safety rules and communication signals.
- Practice in shallow water: to familiarize yourself with the equipment, learn to breathe underwater and gain confidence.
- Open water dive: this is the moment to put everything into practice, always accompanied by your instructor.
The Try Dives price normally includes all equipment (tank, BCD, regulator, wetsuit and fins), diving insurance, personalized assistance and certificate of participation. You won’t have to worry about anything but enjoying yourself.
