On The Day Of Your Course

Arrive at the Dive Centre shop at 6.45pm to collect your mask (if you purchased one when you booked)

Meet the Andark professional running your session, the dive gear, explain basic concepts and help you take your first breaths underwater.

Then it’s into the shallow end of our pool to put on the Scuba equipment and take your first breaths underwater. Once you are confident with the scuba equipment, according to your instructor’s discretion you will be invited into the deep end of our pool (3.4m) to experience pressure (8 and 9 year olds are restricted to the shallow end).
