Guidekin's take

A first dive in the PADI Discover Scuba format: pool skills at a dive centre on Al Wasl Road, then a real sea dive off Jumeirah Beach with an instructor alongside.

All scuba gear is included and no experience is needed, but moderate fitness is; not for pregnant travellers or back and heart problems. 4.99 from 173 reviews at €91 per person for 6h.

In our comparison: #1 of 12 in Scuba Diving & Snorkeling, by rating weighted by review volume (see the comparison).
