Like tickling a bear without losing an arm, the art of breathing underwater requires years of practice and dedication. Introduce your lungs to aqueous awareness with today’s Groupon: for $50, you get one scuba experience class at Harry's Dive Shop (a $100 value).

With more than 40 years experience in the scuba-diving business, Harry's dedicated scuba instructors guide wannabe wet-suiters through scuba essentials over the course of 90 moistened minutes. For the scuba experience, students need only bring a swimsuit and towel; they'll be outfitted with all the necessary diving equipment on site. Open to divers as young as eight years old, these classes take place in an on-site heated pool, where dive masters teach basic gear functions, underwater breathing, proper safety precautions, and dolphin etiquette. Students will also have free time during the class to flipper about with the instructor.

Though the class won't churn out scuba divers certified to dive alone, most students will depart with the certification required to sit in really big puddles.. Harry's offers flexible class times throughout the week including Saturdays; phone ahead to schedule some goggle-time with the dive masters.
