Discover Scuba Diving Offers First Taste of Underwater Adventure in Lagos


A Discover Scuba Diving experience in Lagos is giving beginners the opportunity to explore the underwater world without committing to a full certification course. Designed as an introductory activity, the program allows participants to learn basic scuba principles under the close supervision of a professional instructor at all times.


The experience includes a single guided boat dive, where participants can observe marine life such as octopus, crabs, and colorful fish in their natural habitat. The calm, supported setting allows first-time divers to build confidence while experiencing the sensation of breathing underwater in a controlled environment.


In addition to the underwater exploration, participants are treated to scenic views of the Algarve coastline, including the iconic cliffs of Ponta da Piedade. Above and below the surface, the setting combines natural beauty with accessible adventure, making it a popular choice for first-time divers.


All essential equipment is provided, including wetsuit, regulator, BCD, mask, fins, and boots. Participants are required to complete a medical form prior to the activity and should bring swimwear and a towel. Items such as dive computers, flashlights, and surface marker buoys are not included. The experience is not wheelchair accessible, though accommodations may be arranged for neurodivergent participants upon request. Guests are free to arrive at their convenience before the dive and may plan their day around breakfast or lunch beforehand.

I've only given 3 stars for the simple reason I wasn't impressed in having to haul our hired cylinders off the boat up slippy steep steps into our cars and transport them to the shop and then return and take them down the steps back onto the boat, Phew! Sweat on, knackered before I dive! I could have a bend or slip and break something! I certainly think the boat would benefit from a compressor, it would have helped if they had transported and returned the cylinders in their own vehicle. It would make things so much easier and pleasurable. Rather than making it feel like a working holiday. OK so I'm not a young whipper snapper but I think I'm reasonably fit for a mature person, a few knocks and bangs here and there. To finish off the day we had their accomodation above the shop to scale. More steps, boo boo. Not bad when you get up there, a bit tired but OK, has everything you need. So I've done a bit of moaning, apologies. Diving wise, it was brilliant although the weather was unpredictable and we lost a few days! Time we spent visiting the Island, fab. On the good days we had some really good dives, clear waters, seals nibbling at your fins, so much life, shoals of fish. Plenty of different sites to visit out of Port St Mary so if you can't get on one then there is always another. The boat was a typical dive boat with a lift at the rear, good and solid, well skippered and managed. Overall I enjoyed the experience, if I was to return to the IOM I might think about accomodation on the ground floor and look for a boat with an on board compressor or at least assistance to haul the cylinders around.

They gave me a a dry suit with holes in it. I didn’t realise until I’d left the shop. I ended up having to borrow someone else’s. Not only did they not give a refund, but they blamed it on me and said I’m lucky they’re not making me pay for damages. Next time I went, they again tried to give me a dry suit with holes in it.

Fantastic dive shop with knowledgeable staff and superb instructors. They have everything from snorkels to rebreathers. If you are starting your journey or are looking for further training, Discover Diving is "THE" place to go on the Isle of Man. Go check em out!
