#WeekendGoals: Take Off One Friday And Learn How To Scuba Dive Just Outside Bangalore

Ocean Nomads will teach you how to scuba dive in less than four days in Namma Bengaluru. No need to even leave the city, unless you want to get the real feel just outside town. That's weekend plans sorted for you. 

We all know Bangalore is a landlocked city, and how we’d love to have a beach of our own, where we could sip on piña coladas, get a sun tan and learn scuba diving. While we are assured that hoping for a beach to magically appear in the city is just plain stupid, our scuba diving plans can still work out. Yes, you heard it right! Ocean Nomads will teach you how to scuba dive and prepare you completely for your PADI certification before your first open water dive. The facility they use for the training is a beautiful farm house with a non-chlorinated infinity pool, that’s perfectly designed for scuba diving of which we approve. Located between Bangalore and Hosur, it is the perfect weekend getaway spot too.

Whilst you’re enjoying your weekend at this private location, you’ll be taught everything you need to know before you step foot in open waters. The entire cost for the course, which includes the accommodation cost and food cost for the entire weekend is INR 18,000. Think of it as a fancy getaway with a skill to lean on for your next coastal vacation. It sounds like a deal. They also offer the similar course in Bangalore itself at the St. Joseph’s Indian High School for INR 16,000. They also provide you with all the essential gear and equipment required to learn how to scuba dive. 

Then follow it up with an open dive at a legit sea or ocean to then procure your certification. 

They also organise local and international dive holidays, test your learning at that vacation and become a certified diver.
