?Frequently Asked Questions

I'm scared of water, can I still dive?

Absolutely. Your instructor stays with you the entire time, holding your hand if needed. You are never alone underwater.

I can't swim, is that okay?

Yes! Swimming is not required for introductory dives. The wetsuit and BCD jacket keep you buoyant, and your fins help you move easily.

Will my ears hurt?

Some pressure is normal, but your instructor will teach you how to 'equalize' (pop your ears gently) to prevent pain. It's very simple to learn.

What if I run out of air?

You have an air gauge that you and your instructor monitor. You always surface with plenty of air left in the tank.
