Scuba Dogs is a PADI 5-Star Dive Center; the only official operator with all gear, restrooms, showers, lockers and professional staff right there at the Marine Park.
In particular, the Discover Scuba activity is uniquely AMAZING in the sense that you get to float completely weightless, break all the rules of nature breathing comfortably underwater, and come in direct contact with a great abundance of marine life.
After a colorful description of the historic and ecological value of this epic site, a professional theory review on the science of diving, and basic skills training in the shallow part of the shoreline, you'll be exploring the entire bay safely under the direct supervision of a dive professional.

ADHD and Anxiety. Still had a Blast

5.00This experience was amazing!!! I highly recommend. Dale has been scuba instructing for 1500 trips or something. We had Paco as an instructor and he held my friends hand the whole time. If you have a condition that might prevent you from scuba diving you can get evaluated by your own physician and get signed off to scuba dive ahead. I have adhd and anxiety and I had an amazing experience and my doctor told me what to watch out for so I felt extra prepared.

5.00Amazing first time diving experience. Completed snorkeling and snuba in the past and wanted to take the next step. Dale and Alex took the time to walk us through the process, equip us with clean well functioning equipment, and get us in the water in a timely manner. They did a really good job of working with the nerves and anxiety of new divers and building the confidence to complete the dive. Dale held my wife’s hand the whole dive to help her and calm her down. We dove for about 30 minutes and Dale helped us follow up on the scuba certification process for when we get home!
Supported all the way
