Try Scuba in Puerto Morelos Your First Dive on the Reef

About this experience

Would you like to discover what it feels like to breathe underwater? With Try Scuba from SouthEast Divers you can live your first diving experience in Puerto Morelos without prior experience or certification.

You will start with the SSI digital material and a theory class to learn the equipment, signals, and basic skills. After you will practice with the guidance of your instructor before diving in a reef near the beach, to a maximum depth of 5 meters with a ratio of 2 students per instructor. You will have time to adapt and enjoy the marine environment with attention to your comfort and the care of the reef.

The experience lasts approximately 4 hours and includes all the equipment, training, an immersion, and an SSI digital certification upon completion. It is aimed at people aged 15 and over who know how to swim comfortably and float. It is an opportunity to try diving and discover if you want to continue towards the Open Water certification.
