Why learn in Bangalore

Getting certified as a scuba diver is a gateway to one of the most amazing activities ever.    While a lot of people choose to get  certified while on holiday, there are a lot of advantages to completing the basic training at home before you go.

To start with, the skills training is the foundation of your comfort and safety in the water.    Doing this at home lets you work at your own pace without feeling rushed – if you need more sessions, you get more sessions and at no extra charge.

Second, this frees up your precious vacation time to actually dive or do other activities on holiday, instead of doing drills in a pool or watching videos in a classroom.

Lastly, you have a “home base” for diving – we are a resource to help you at any stage in your dive career:  be it with equipment, other training, any diving situations you may face, etc.

On the whole, we feel that this will make you a better and more comfortable diver.
