Have you ever wondered what it's like to breathe underwater?
If you want to find out but aren't quite ready to take the plunge into a certification course, Discover Scuba Diving will let you try scuba to see if you like it.
AMERICAN DIVERS INTERNATIONAL offers this program, FOR FREE for Brevard residents, in our heated pool. While not an actual scuba certification, during the Discover Scuba Diving experience you'll learn how to use scuba equipment in shallow water and get a quick and easy & free introduction to what it takes to explore the underwater world.
