What is a try dive?

Before taking up scuba diving a try dive in the swimming pool with Marlin Sub-Aqua Club in Nuneaton will help you decide how much you’ll love it! A try dive experience also makes a great gift for others and you can order vouchers at the bottom of the page. You can come on your own and will be assured of a warm welcome.

What happens on a try dive?

You will be welcomed by a club committee member who will put you at your ease and answer any immediate questions. Each try dive starts with a brief introduction to diving techniques, and the equipment that you will be using, under the supervision of one of our try dive team. We will assemble your scuba kit and show you how it works, so you don’t need any prior scuba diving knowledge.

Once you have changed into your swimming gear and an old tee-shirt/shorts in the pool’s changing rooms (equipped with cubicles) you will enter the water and then put on the scuba kit. This means there is no heavy kit to lift. In stages, you will slowly start to breathe underwater, first while standing close to the side and moving on to kneeling. Once you are happy we will guide you around the pool slowly progressing to a maximum depth of two metres.

The aim of the try dive is for you to experience scuba diving in a safe and fun environment. You won’t be put under any pressure and we will go at your pace.

Very gentle progression for a swimmer who is not super confident
