In a few words
The Discovery Program is for anyone who wants to try scuba diving without committing to a full course. No experience is required: you just need to be comfortable in the water and in good health. Accompanied at all times by a certified instructor, you'll complete two dives to gradually familiarize yourself with the equipment, underwater breathing, and basic diving techniques. Each dive will allow you to gain confidence and explore more of the wonders of the Tahitian lagoon and reef: corals, colorful fish, and perhaps even turtles. This program is ideal for determining if diving is right for you before committing to a full course.
Finally, remember to allow a minimum of 12 hours between your last dive and any potential flight.
