Have you always wanted to know what it’s like to breathe underwater? Sadly, humans will never have gills like fish do, but there is a way that you can experience the tranquil, watery existence of our ocean friends: Through scuba diving, an adventure that opens up a whole new world of ocean discovery.
Are you scuba-curious?
If you want to try scuba diving, but aren’t quite ready to take the plunge into a full certification course, the PADI Discover Scuba Diving course at the Two Oceans Aquarium Dive School is for you.
Anyone who is in reasonably good health and aged 10 or older may take part in this activity. Discover Scuba Diving will introduce you to a great new hobby that ultimately will provide more ways for you to connect with nature for the rest of your life.
Discover Scuba Diving is designed to provide scuba newbies with a fun, closely supervised experience. Although this is not a scuba certification course, you’ll learn what it takes to be a PADI-certified diver. As with any PADI course or programme, diver safety is the first priority!
Upon successful completion of this half-day course, you will be able to do a single dive in the Aquarium’s I&J Ocean Exhibit on the same day. That means entering the world of stingrays and other temperate ocean fish species along with your certified PADI Dive Instructor, who will guide you through the whole journey.

Any-weather scuba for all levels!
Outdoor activities are weather dependent, but choosing to scuba at the Aquarium means you can dive come rain or shine. And, the Aquarium is centrally located at the V&A Waterfront, so no long travel times are required.
If you’re already a qualified scuba diver, you can explore any of the Aquarium large-scale exhibits – including diving with sharks, no cage required!
Ready to take it to the next level? The Two Oceans Aquarium Dive School also offers full scuba certifications through a range of advanced PADI courses.
