Whether you're away on holiday or in your home town, there's almost always a PADI Dive Centre or Resort nearby. With professionally trained staff, they'll help to get you in and under the water in the least amount of time and with the maximum amount of fun. You don't have to be a certified diver to participate in PADI's Experience programs. However, as you can see by the flowchart below, some of the programs are designed to give you credit toward becoming a fully certified diver. For more information on PADI's Experience programs, click on the program name in the flowchart and then contact Dive-In for further details.

Kids - bring your parents diving! For young adventurers like you, the Bubblemaker program is an introduction to the thrill of breathing underwater. If you’re eight or nine years of age, now is your chance to take the plunge with a PADI Instructor and go pool diving.
Whether it’s a glass of milk, bubble gum or being submerged beneath the surface - you can’t help blowing bubbles! So try blowing bubbles our way. Start out on the right fin, jump into the PADI Bubblemaker program today!

Discover Scuba
If you’ve always wanted to try scuba diving - then jump in! This is the adult equivalent of Bubblemaker and your chance to breathe underwater in a fun, convenient session conducted in a pool.
Whether you watch the short PADI Discover Scuba video, or are briefed with the Discover Scuba Diving Flip Chart, you’ll enter the water ready for your scuba adventure. After you and your instructor strap on your scuba gear, you’ll have the chance to dive down to 6 metres/20 feet.
As soon as you Discover Scuba, you’re on your way to an internationally recognized certification. That’s because you may learn skills from the PADI Open Water Diver course during your Discover Scuba adventure. If you and your instructor elect to practice these skills, they may be credited to the PADI Scuba Diver or Open Water Diver certifications.
What does all that mean? Go diving, practice some skills with your instructor, get a head start on your PADI Scuba Diver or Open Water Diver certification!
To go on your Discover Scuba adventure, you must be at least 10 years or older and complete the
Discover Scuba Statement (which includes a medical questionnaire).
Here’s your chance - dive in! Stop by your local Dive-In Centre for more information.

Discover Scuba Diving
When you discover scuba diving, you discover excitement and adventure, freedom and serenity. Nothing compares to the "weightless" exhilaration of breathing underwater. Only a diver knows the feeling!
The PADI Discover Scuba Diving program lets you experience the thrill of diving under the supervision of a PADI Instructor in ideal conditions, such as those found at a resort. During your adventure, you’ll master some basic concepts and scuba skills before heading off on an open water dive.
Your open water dive takes you as deep as 12 metres/40 feet! (Of course, this depends on where you dive.) The Discover Scuba Diving experience is a great way to get a head start on your PADI Scuba Diver or Open Water Diver certification. That’s because the skills you complete during your adventure can be credited towards your Scuba Diver or Open Water Diver certification. All that
you have to do is to tell your Dive-In instructor how much you enjoyed yourself - and ask when you may continue.
To participate in the Discover Scuba Diving experience, you must be at least 10 years old.
