Guided Scooter Dive: The Fast and Thrilling Way to Explore the Depths
Have you ever dreamed of gliding effortlessly through the water, covering vast distances in a single dive, and visiting multiple dive sites in the time it usually takes to explore just one? A guided scooter dive (using a Dive Propulsion Vehicle, or DPV) at the Deep Siam club in Eilat is the perfect upgrade for divers seeking adrenaline, comfort, and access to locations that standard divers simply cannot reach.

Using an underwater scooter completely transforms the diving experience. Instead of expending energy kicking your fins, you simply pull the trigger and let the motor guide you through the spectacular coral reefs of the Gulf of Eilat. The dive becomes quieter and more serene, allowing you to fully focus on the beauty surrounding you.

Why choose a guided scooter dive at Deep Siam?
Diving with a scooter requires skill, buoyancy control, and in-depth knowledge of the dive sites. Deep Siam’s experienced instructors are DPV experts who will safely guide you along selected routes specifically tailored for these underwater vehicles.

Covering more ground while saving air: the greatest advantage of a guided scooter dive is the ability to visit multiple sites during a single dive. While a standard diver is limited by their swimming range, a DPV (scooter) allows you to travel effortlessly from the southern reserve to more distant sites. Since you aren't exerting yourself physically, your air consumption drops significantly, enabling you to spend more time underwater.

Access pristine, remote sites: Eilat has dive sites that are difficult to reach by swimming from the shore. With a scooter, these sites become easily accessible. You can explore pristine coral walls, shipwrecks, and deep reefs that see very few visitors—all under professional guidance to ensure you don't miss a thing along the way.

What does the guided scooter dive experience include?
Our guided dives begin before you even enter the water; we ensure you have everything needed for a safe and thoroughly enjoyable experience.

Professional briefing and equipment familiarization: Before entering the water, you will receive a detailed briefing on operating the scooter. We will cover how to start and stop, control your speed, and maintain a constant depth while moving. The instructor will explain safety procedures specific to DPV diving, including maintaining proper distance and communicating with your dive buddy. State-of-the-art, well-maintained equipment: At Deep Siam, we use next-generation underwater scooters known for their high reliability, long battery life, and intuitive operation. Each scooter undergoes a rigorous pre-dive inspection to ensure a smooth, trouble-free experience.

Who is scooter diving for, and what are the requirements?
Guided scooter dives are designed for certified divers with experience and strong buoyancy control. Since movement is faster, divers must be able to equalize ear pressure quickly and maintain precise buoyancy.

Recommended prerequisites:

Open Water Diver certification (1-star) or higher.

Excellent buoyancy control.

If you haven't used a scooter before, the instructor will conduct a brief practice session in shallow water before heading out to the deeper dive site.
