Has the heat wave in the past couple of weeks gotten you down? Have you eaten so many bowls of ice cream that you don’t even want to hear the word vanilla? If so, you may want to think about the latest deal coming from Groupon.com. It’s for $15 for one try Scuba Diving Lesson at The Dive Shop.

The Diving Lesson at the Dive Shop is a three hour intro lesson, geared towards novices who want to take an undersea adventure. The course begins with an approximately hour-long introductory land lesson covering proper techniques. Next, you’ll have roughly 90 minutes to explore the indoor pool, followed by 30 minutes of post-dive dry discussion and questions. If you’re interested in continuing your diving experience and possibly getting certified, you will receive a $50 voucher that can be used toward future tuition within 45 days of the initial lesson.

As with almost any great deal, there are limitations: Limit 1 per person, but you may buy multiple as gifts. Reservations are required. There is a  24-hour cancellation policy or Groupon is forfeited. Participants must be at least 12 years of age. If under 18, they must have parent or guardian present. Participants also must sign medical release form.

The Dive Shop is only about 16 minutes from the Bailey Creek Apartments, so you won’t have that much of a commute if you decide to go. This sounds like fun, and I hope that some of you participate so that you can tell us all about it!
