DIVER PROPULSION VEHICLE (DPV) 

Scuba diving with a DPV is some of the most fun you can have underwater. During the PADI® Diver Propulsion Vehicle course, you’ll be surprised how much you can see on one tank of air. Your instructor will show you different maneuvers and answer any questions you have.

If scuba diving is like taking a scenic stroll around a park, a Diver Propulsion Vehicle (DPV) is like exploring a neighborhood on an (electric) bicycle. 

DPVs, also called underwater scooters, allow you to see more, conserve air and get from one place to another faster – with a huge smile on your face. 

You’ll see more in less time,  minimize long swims, learn about different types of DPVs and try something incredibly fun.
