A new product that has just gone in to
production in Australia puts you right in the sea without
traditional diving gear and instruction. This means you don’t need
to wear a mask or a mouthpiece as in diving, and the air tank and
diving weights are on the ScubaDoo, not you!
You are seated on your ScubaDoo, with your head and shoulders
within a clear dome, your air constantly replenished from the
Scuba tank, enabling you to breathe normally!
the ScubaDoo is very manoeuvrable and at a rate of 2.5 knots
you’re able to ride amongst the spectacular underwater world, or
remain stationary while you feed the fish. the glass dome works as
a type of air chamber or air pocket this allows you to breath
without wearing normal scuba gear, you can even wear your
spectacles or contact lenses in the ScubaDoo.
There’s no need to be a strong swimmer, in fact the ScubaDoo is
even used by people with minor disabilities.
Your Dive Instructor will show you the safety techniques of the
ScubaDoo, and you’ll be off enjoying yourself in just a few
minutes, while those doing a resort scuba dive are still doing
their class.
