Try Scuba Diving Thailand – Your First Underwater Experience

Try Scuba Diving Thailand is the ideal choice if you want to discover scuba diving but are not ready for a full certification course. In just half a day, you experience real dive sites while enjoying a safe and relaxing introduction to the underwater world.

To offer the best learning conditions, we use our dedicated training boat, while our second boat is reserved for fun dives. This setup ensures a calm and comfortable environment for beginners.


Why Try Scuba Diving Thailand Is Perfect for Beginners

No previous experience or swimming skills are required to join Try Scuba Diving Thailand.
Our instructors guide you through:

  • Basic equipment use

  • Breathing techniques

  • Safety rules

  • Understanding the aquatic environment

This first step prepares you for your underwater adventure.


Build Confidence in Shallow Water Before Your Try Scuba Diving Thailand Dive

We start in very shallow water to help you feel confident. You learn essential beginner skills such as:

  • Clearing your mask

  • Recovering your regulator

  • Sharing air in case of emergency

These simple exercises allow you to relax before exploring deeper water.


Explore Real Dive Sites with Try Scuba Diving Thailand

When you’re ready, your instructor guides you to a shallow coral reef where you can observe tropical marine life under direct supervision. This first dive typically lasts around one hour, depending on your comfort and air consumption.

After the dive, we return to the boat and head to a second dive site. You can choose to:

  • Make a second Try Scuba Diving Thailand dive, or

  • Relax on the boat, swim, and enjoy the beautiful scenery

Continue Your Training After Try Scuba Diving Thailand

If you loved the experience — and many do — you can continue with the Basic Diver program or start your first certification: the Open Water Diver course.
