COURSE INFORMATION
This program is the best way to begin your life-long adventure as a certified scuba diver.
If you’re short on time but really want to become a diver, the PADI Scuba Diver course might be right for you. This course is an intermediate step for earning an Open Water Diver Certification, if that’s your ultimate goal.
The Scuba Diver Course consists of knowledge development, skill development and open water dives.
Personalized training is combined with in-water practice sessions to ensure you have the training and experience required to become truly comfortable underwater.
The Scuba Diver Certification will allow you to dive anywhere in the world to a maximum depth of 12m/40ft under the direct supervision of a PADI professional.
You earn this license by completing three knowledge development sessions, three training dives in confined water and by making two open water dives from the shore.
You can upgrad anytime to the PADI Open Water Diver Certification with additional training.
The full Open Water Diver Certification will allow you to dive anywhere in the world to a maximum depth of 18m/60ft, without the assistance of a PADI professional.
Step 1 Knowledge Development
The PADI Scuba Diver Course consists of three main phases:
The knowledge development portion of the course is designed so you can understand the basic principles of scuba diving including, equipment and techniques.
The theory consist of the first three chapters of the PADI Open Water Diver manual, the first three corresponding knowledge reviews and the first three Videos of the PADI DVD Open Water Diver. Upon completion you will be given three quizzes of multiple choice, there’s no exam required for the completion of this course. You can do the knowledge section at your own pace and when it’s convenient for you. You can complete the academics online, study independent or in our ‘classroom’.
Step 2: Confined Water Dives
In this part of the course you will learn and develop basic scuba skills in a pool or water with pool-like conditions under instructor supervision.
You will practice just the first three of the five confined water dives of the PADI Open Water Diver Course.
As you learn new skills, you’ll build the abilities and confidence needed for diving in open water.
Step 3: Open Water Dives
In this part of the course you will complete just two of the four open water dives of the PADI Open Water Diver Course.
There, you will have a chance to use the skills you already mastered in the confined water, demonstrate the techniques for safe, enjoyable diving and explore an amazing new world.
