From Oyster Diving:
This experience is a one hour introduction to diving. You’ll receive a safety briefing from one of our professional PADI instructors. You’ll then start in the shallow end where you will learn how to use the scuba equipment, take your first breaths underwater and do a few simple safety skills. From here it’s time to explore the deep end and experience weightlessness, just like an astronaut! We will take photos and share them with you on Dropbox after the course!
