  • Trip introduction

    A great introduction to scuba diving, this 40-min scuba try dive in Goa will help you take your first steps in the adventure sport. During a half-day session in Goa, a certified dive instructor will guide you through your first 40-min open water dive in the Arabian Sea. But before you take the plunge, you'll spend some time learning the basic techniques of diving, and practicing these techniques in a swimming pool.

    In the sea, you'll dive with the scuba equipment and swim alongside schools of colourful fish, explore the cool waters of the open sea and revel in the calm, underwater beauty of the Arabian Sea. Ideal for people who want a proper way to test the waters of scuba diving, this trip also serves as a trial run to explore further certification courses in diving.

    Destination

    Your dive centre is located close to the Calangute beach, one of the more popular beaches of Goa. Here, you'll have a quick training session in the dive centre's swimming pool, before transferring to the dive spot near Grande Island.

    Located 1-hr boat ride away from mainland Goa, the waters of the Arabian Sea near Grande Island are a hotspot for scuba divers. Swim alongside schools of small, brightly-coloured fish, and explore the underwater beauty of the sea, with water tinted with shades of blue and green.
