If foam noodles can be found floating on the surface of almost every pool, think how many perfectly salted meatballs must be at the bottom of the ocean. Learn to discover the sea's sunken treats with today's Groupon: for $30, you get one beginner's Discover Scuba Class and an underwater photograph (a $75 total value) at Scuba Views, located just north of the North Las Vegas Airport.

Divers as young as 10 years old can discover the life of a flippered amphibian in a Discover Scuba class ($65) at Scuba Views. During the three-hour introductory class, one of the PADI-certified instructors will guide you from land-based preparations through exploring the aqueous abyss within the safety and confines of a pool. All the necessary equipment will be provided, along with safety tips, diving techniques, and equipment-handling skills to help you navigate the balmy waters. Lessons are year round, and because there is no minimum number of students required for classes, Scuba Views will accommodate your schedule any day except Tuesday, the Scuba Sabbath day of rest.

Part of your experience includes an underwater photograph ($10) to solidify your alibi and decorate your boss's refrigerator. Although this is not a certification course, it’s a chance for you to get your flippers wet to see if diving is for you. Plus, you'll get to share tales of your aqua-lunged adventure with coworkers in and around the water cooler.

Call ahead to schedule your Discover Scuba experience. Prospective divers must be at least 10 years old and must sign a waiver and complete a medical questionnaire.
