The Fun Part
There is nothing like breathing underwater for the very first time. It takes a little getting used to but after a few minutes of awestruck wonder, most participants realize how easy scuba diving really is.
The biggest challenge for us is coaxing Discover Scuba Diving participants out of the water when the program is over.
The fun part? It's all fun!
