Discover Scuba Diving

It allows you to breath under the water using dive equipment and experience a great way to explore an underwater Reef.  Introductory diving is also known as Discover Scuba Diving, because it is exactly that. Ability to swim is necessary and prior snorkeling experience is recommended.
