About this tour
Learn to dive in Pemuteran's sheltered waters with a qualified instructor guiding you through your first underwater breaths. This 7-hour initiation takes you to a maximum depth of 12 metres in the marine park, starting with pool-side equipment familiarisation before progressing to shallow dives. You'll master buoyancy control and the fundamentals of breathing underwater in a low-pressure environment designed for absolute beginners.

What to expect
You'll spend the morning at the dive centre with classroom briefing and shallow-water drills in calm conditions. Your instructor walks you through regulator breathing, mask clearing, and staying neutral underwater—all essential before heading to the reef. Once confident, you'll complete two open-water dives in the marine park at depths up to 12 metres, spotting reef fish and coral formations. The pace is deliberately gentle; expect stops for reassurance and technique checks throughout. By day's end you'll have logged genuine bottom time and understanding of what diving actually feels like.
