Always wanted to try scuba diving but never had a licence? That’s exactly what Discover Scuba Diving is for. It’s your first breath underwater on the Red Sea — no experience and no certification required — with a personal instructor beside you the whole time. Here’s what the experience is like, how it works, and what it costs.
What is Discover Scuba Diving?
Discover Scuba Diving (sometimes called a “try dive”) is the easiest way to find out what breathing underwater actually feels like. There’s no course to pass and nothing to prepare. After a short, friendly briefing, your instructor takes you into the water step by step, right off the Eilat shore, so you can relax and enjoy the reef safely. You’re never more than an arm’s reach from your guide.
What’s included
Everything you need for your first dive is in the price:
- A personal instructor with you the whole time — one-to-one attention, not a crowd.
- A full set of diving equipment — all included, nothing to rent separately.
- A short briefing and one guided dive on Eilat’s house reef.
- About 80 minutes of dive time, a maximum depth of 6 metres, and an easy entry straight from the shore.
Who it’s for
Discover Scuba is for anyone curious about diving — first-timers, families and travellers. No prior experience is needed and there’s no exam at the end, and it’s open from age 12. If you can breathe through the regulator and enjoy looking at fish, you can do this. It’s also the perfect way to decide whether you want to go on and get certified.
How much does it cost
Discover Scuba is priced per group, so it gets better value the more of you come:
- 1 participant — ₪450
- 2 participants — ₪800
- 3 participants — ₪1,110
- 4 participants — ₪1,440
Every option includes full equipment, the instructor’s time, and your guided dive on the reef.
Why Eilat is perfect for your first dive
Eilat is one of the easiest and most beautiful places in the world to try diving. The Red Sea here is warm and calm all year, visibility is excellent, and you walk in straight from the shore — no long, seasick boat rides for your very first dive. And the reef itself is alive: even in the shallows you’ll see clouds of colourful fish, corals and maybe a turtle or two.
Why try it with us
At Trubarev Dive Co. your first dive is guided personally by a PADI instructor with 20 years of experience and over 3,000 certifications issued. That means genuine one-to-one attention and safety first, so your very first time underwater is calm, easy and something you’ll remember.
