GUE SCUBA DIVER

Do you want to explore the underwater world but aren’t sure how comfortable you’ll feel there? With the GUE Scuba Diver course, you can get a first taste of diving.

This course will teach you all the essential skills for a safe and comfortable dive, while keeping your maximum depth to 12 meters (40 feet). Due to your limited experience, you will always dive under the supervision of a professional diver.

WHO IS THIS COURSE FOR?

The GUE Scuba Diver course could be the perfect first step if you'd like to dive under the supervision of diving professionals.

• Perhaps you’d like to benefit from the added security that professional supervision provides.
• Or you may prefer to gain new experiences in small steps.
• This course is also ideal if, due to time constraints, a full diving course is not possible for you.
• Additionally, the course is recommended for younger individuals, as it limits the depth and ensures adult supervision.

WHAT WILL I LEARN?

The course will cover (but is not limited to): the basic principles of diving, how the equipment works, and how pressure changes underwater affect the body.

You will learn exciting skills that will give you confidence and safety underwater, helping you manage basic problems that may arise during your dives.

With a GUE Scuba Diver certification, you will be qualified to dive under the supervision of a diving professional to a maximum depth of 12 meters (40 feet).
