Discover Scuba Diving Duration: How Long is the First Dive?

The full activity usually takes about half a day, which covers the theory, getting kitted up, and the dive itself. You’ll spend roughly 45 minutes underwater, depending on how fast you breathe your air. Don’t forget to factor in time for the initial briefing and some chill-out time after the dive.
