Learn how to scuba dive for the first time in Cape Town!

If you have ever dreamed of learning how to scuba dive but don’t have time to commit to a multi-day course, or just want to see if scuba is for you, this discovery scuba diving course in Cape Town will give you a taste of what scuba diving is like! Depending on the activity variant you choose, you can even experience diving in the ocean by the end of the course! Scuba diving itself is an incredible activity that will stay with you for life, taking you to incredible locations all over the world, giving you a sense of awe every time you dive, relieving stress, and introducing you to other divers! The iconic city of Cape Town located right on the edge of the Atlantic Ocean, is the perfect place to learn how to scuba dive!

Your beginners scuba diving course with the PADI certified instructors at Into the Blue starts at the Into the Blue dive centre where you will be given a brief introduction to the basic safety, rules and techniques of scuba diving including how to use the scuba equipment, the foundational hand signs to use underwater, and what to do in cases of emergency. From there, you will head to the pool to get more familiar with the scuba equipment underwater. In the pool you will practise breathing, levelling your buoyancy, taking off your mask underwater, and other such introductory techniques to scuba diving. Most importantly, you will also get to play around underwater and have a lot of fun while you are learning!

For those who choose to follow their pool experience with an open water diving experience, it will then be time to get into the ocean, though on calm days, you might also get to do the skill development/pool session in the ocean shallows. Along with your guide, you will head into Cape Town’s ocean, and depending on where you dive, you might get to dive around a shipwreck or a beautiful kelp forest! Cape Town has an abundance of sealife and you are sure to be awe-inspired regardless of which location you dive in!

I have always wanted to dive but never got the opportunity to do so. Well I'm hooked now. I really loved it and the instructor (Spade) was amazing.

It was very cool to have the experience of breathing under water, learn the first and most important things about scuba diving and then try it out in the water. Now, we are 100% sure we want to go further and do the open water course. This experience is not expensive at all. Now we know the money for the course will be worth it for sure!
