All necessary dive equipment is provided for certification courses and guided dives.
For non-certified guests, Discover Scuba Dive (DSD) sessions provide three-hour introductions to SCUBA for ages 10 and up, instructed by PADI staff trained by Navy SEALs.

Trident Adventures also operates specialty experiences including snorkel adventures with snorkel scooters and floating mats, helicopter ocean jumps with scenic boat returns, special event helicopter jumps, and a Navy SEAL–style full-day program led by a Navy SEAL instructor.
