Who says that you have to be a Scuba Diver to enjoy exotic beaches or the Caribbean? You can enjoy the beautiful serenity and the fish life while snorkeling and skin diving. Aquatic Adventures offers lessons on how to snorkel and skin dive. While snorkeling is limited to peering down from the surface, skin divers generally venture farther than snorkelers, making frequent surface dives to interact with aquatic life, up close and personal. These classes are taught in one day, and include a short classroom session, followed by in-water training which includes various techniques for donning and adjusting equipment, entering the water, checking buoyancy, surface swimming, clearing water from your snorkel and performing effortless surface dives.
The best part is learning to use your mask, fins, and snorkel so you do not miss a moment of underwater action. Whether you are looking at your local freshwater lake or the big blue ocean, you will have a new perspective on just about every body of water. If you decide to take the full Skin Diver Course ($89) then you will also recieve a PADI Skin Diver certification card for your efforts.
