Getting ready for independent diving. Entry level scuba divers
Goals:
- Teach divers to dive properly with a buddy, independent of professional supervision.
- Teach divers to plan and participate in local dives, or dives in an environment where the conditions are similar.
- Persuade divers to dive often and continue their diver education.
After you enjoy your first discovery experience is time to continue. The Open Water certification course is divided into:
5 academic presentations
5 confined water dives, and
4 open water training dives (the last two open water training dives are done from a boat.)
We recommend a minimum of 4 days.
Included: use of equipment needed for the course (BCD, regulator, mask, fins, snorkel, wet suit), course textbook and logbook, certification fee.
You may get an early start on the theory lessons and readings by either getting the E-course/touch program (online multimedia) or by downloading the PDF version of the book.
If you have any medical issues, you must bring a medical approval form (download the medical form from our website).
