The try dive is a 1 hour session held at Whitstable Swimming Pool that touches on the basics of scuba diving and gives you an insight into what it’s like to breathe whilst underwater.

The session starts with a brief introduction to the equipment that you’ll be using, communication and how to equalise your ears. Then, we get in the pool and take the session in-water.

Once in the water, we will go through step by step how to control your equipment, breathe and put the theory into practice. When your comfortable, you will have some time to swim around at your own pace and really enjoy the experience.
