Have you always wondered what it’s like to breathe and move effortlessly underwater? Our Discover Scuba Diving (DSD) experience in Nusa Penida, also known as a “Try Dive,” is your perfect introduction to the incredible world of scuba diving. It’s designed for anyone curious to explore beneath the surface but not yet ready for a full certification course. Get ready for an unforgettable experience, with a high chance of diving alongside majestic Manta Rays!
The DSD is not a certification course, but a thrilling, guided experience with minimal necessary training to dive without a license. It’s ideal if you’re short on time or simply want to “try before you buy” a full course. With our expert instructors by your side, you’ll learn the basic scuba techniques, become comfortable with the equipment, and experience weightlessness in beautiful underwater settings.
Your experience includes:
- Theoretical Introduction: A simple briefing on the fundamentals of diving physics, safety rules, how to equalize your ears, underwater signals, and movement.
- Shallow Water Skills Practice: Get familiar with the gear and practice essential safety skills in shallow, controlled conditions in our exclusive private practice pool until you feel comfortable.
- Two Open Water Dives: Once you’re ready, our boat will take you for two amazing dives in Nusa Penida! You’ll explore sites like Manta Point for potential Manta Ray encounters and a second beautiful spot with vibrant coral gardens and rich marine life. You will be under the close supervision of your instructor at all times.

Option B (Same Day Training): If you only have one day available, you can arrive early on your dive date itself (around 7:00 AM) to complete the required training before the boat departs for your dives.
Crucial note on morning dive departure: Regardless of when you do your training, the boat departure time for your two open water dives on your chosen dive date is dependent on daily tide conditions. The approximate meeting time is 8:00 AM, but this can vary by up to +/- 1 hour. It is essential that you contact us the day before your planned dive date to confirm your training time (if applicable) AND the exact meeting/boat departure time for your morning dives.
