Practical information
Starting at 9 AM you meet your instructor for the day. Your instructor will show you your dive equipment and explain to you how it works and basic safety procedures. Once you are familiar with the dive equipment and you have your wetsuit on you will enter the water in the bay area next to the Rubicon Dive Centre. This is a perfect place to enter the water as you can walk in at a pace that you are comfortable with. Once you feel relaxed breathing underwater and are ready to move on you will go with your instructor on a short dive around the bay. Even though this is a shallow dive area it is still populated by many types of fish and it is not uncommon to see rays and Angel sharks in this area.
After lunch comes the highlight of your day, a trip out to the museum. The dive boat leaves from the marina at 3pm for a 10 minute ride to the dive site. Once anchored you will enter the water with your instructor and slowly descend along the anchor line down to the start of the museum tour. At all times your instructor will be with you guiding you and ensuring your safety, all you have to do is relax and enjoy the sights. Your dive will typically last around 40 minutes bringing you back to the exit line so that you can safely ascend back to the boat.
At the end of your day you will be issued with your SSI Basic Diver certification. This will allow you to dive in similar conditions down to 12 meters under the supervision of a dive professional and is valid for 6 months.
All participants must be able to swim.
Minors must have authorization from their parents.
In case you had a surgery within the last 12 months it is mandatory to have a medical certificate to dive.
