This is your chance to slap on some fins, strap on a mask and experience an intense adventure in a short amount of time.

Why PADI Scuba Diver?

The PADI Scuba Diver program is a pre-entry level certification that is perfect for vacationers or people who only plan to dive a couple times a year.

As a subprogram of the PADI Open Water Diver program, the PADI Scuba Diver rating allows you to get certified quickly and easily by minimizing time constraints. With the PADI Scuba Diver certification you can dive under the direct supervision of a PADI Divemaster, Assistant Instructor, Instructor or higher professional on your next vacation or dive trip

What do I need to start?

Virtually anyone who is in good health, reasonably fit, and comfortable in the water can earn a Scuba Diver certification. If you are between 10 and 14 or have a child between these ages, there is a PADI Junior Scuba Diver program available.

• Minimum age: 10
• Be able to tread water for 10 minutes
• Have no medical problems

What will I do?

Throughout the course, you’ll learn fundamentals of scuba diving, including dive equipment and techniques. You earn this rating by completing 3 pool dives,3 knowledge development sessions and by making two open water (ocean or lake) dives.You will also need to demonstrate confidence in the water by completing a 10 minute flotation exercise.

Prior to the course starting you will receive an Openwater crewpack with a training manual. It is important that you read the first 3 chapters of this book and complete the relevant knowledge reviews before starting the course. This gives you a stronger base for knowledge of new concepts, and more opportunity for learning for you.

How long will it take?

PADI programs are performance based. You proceed as you demonstrate mastery of the course skills. This allows you to work at a pace that is comfortable for you. However, it can be completed in approx 2-3 days intensely (weather dependent) or over a 3 week period.
