PADI Open Water Course
This is not only our most popular course but the most popular Scuba Course in the world. It's the first level of PADI Certification and as a certified PADI Open Water Diver you have the freedom to dive with a buddy independent of a professional, to a maximum depth of 18 meters.
Throughout the course, you'll learn fundamentals of scuba diving, including dive equipment and techniques. You'll complete three pool sessions, knowledge development sessions and four open water dives. You don't have to be super fit to learn, virtually anyone who is in good health, reasonably fit, and comfortable in the water can earn a PADI Open Water Diver certification. At some point in the course, we'll ask you to demonstrate the ability to swim 200 metres/yards without swim aids or 300 metres/yards with mask, fins and snorkel and tread water for about 10 minutes.
If you are between 10 and 14 or have a child between these ages, there is a PADI Junior Open Water Diver program available, please click on Junior Courses for more info.
