Description

The Dive in a Day Scuba Resort Course is the absolute best way for a person to experience diving. With two hours of pool training, you learn the skills to hover weightlessly beneath the surface of crystal blue waters. You will be able to enjoy, explore, and learn from the only living coral reef in the United States.

This tour is sure to become your favorite stop on your tropical Key West vacation. Perfect for the whole family, this tour is both fun and educational. Vacations were made so time could be spent on adventures such as this one. If you visit the Florida Keys without trying this tour, you will have no idea what you are missing!

The Dive-in-a-Day Resort Course includes an entire day full of fun and adventure! You will have your lesson in the pool, then come along for our two-tank, two-location afternoon dive on the beautiful coral reef. Your instructor will be underwater with you throughout your entire diving expedition. As an added bonus, any gear you will need is provided in your tour price. This includes the price of the boat trip, full diving equipment and oxygen tanks.

Great for those of you who always wanted to try scuba diving but do not have time for the certification course. Yes, snorkeling is great, but nothing beats the tranquil and amazing experience of being in the underwater world of the coral reef.
