PADI Open Water Diver

Description
The first scuba certification, and the prerequisite for all other courses, the Open Water Diver Course teaches you the core skills needed to dive safely. This certification allows you to dive anywhere in the world up to 60 feet (18 meters) deep and dive with a certified dive buddy, allowing for deeper, cheaper, and more flexible diving opportunities. We provide all the training and equipment you'll need for your dives in the scenic backdrop of our coral garden. With our ecological focus, you will gain additional knowledge learn more about the marine ecosystem you are exploring and how to safely interact with it.
We run this 3 day course weekly, 10am to 4pm, every Monday to Wednesday. If you can't find one in our schedule that matches your availability, please contact us directly to see if we can accommodate you.
We run our 2 day Coral Reef Conservation Course on the following Thursday and Friday, so volunteers and coral reef lovers can get both these certifications in 5 days with a 5% discount. You can bundle the courses at check out.
