The Open Water Diver course, the most popular
dive program in the world! This is your ticket to a lifetime of intense adventure.
Throughout the course, you’ll learn fundamentals of scuba diving, including
dive equipment and techniques. You will also earn a Open Water Diver certification
that is recognized worldwide. You earn this rating by completing five pool
dives and knowledge development sessions and by making four open water (ocean)
dives.
Being a certified Open Water Diver gives you the freedom to dive with a buddy
independent of a professional so you may begin to explore exotic reefs throughout
the world!! Your underwater adventure can begin as soon as today! If you already
tried a Discover Scuba Diving experience or are Scuba Diver certified, check
with your instructor to see how credit from these courses may apply to the
open water program. Open water learning options also include group or private
instruction. Offering you tremendous flexibility while on vacation.
This 32 hour entry level course is divided into three parts.
Part 1.... The classroom
is where you develop the knowledge of scuba diving. We feature the latest
audio-visual media presentations to avoid long, boring lectures.
Part 2.... Confined water training,
which is conducted in a stress free, relaxing swimming pool. Here you will
find out just how easy it is to learn the water skills of a scuba diver.
Part 3.... Open water
is the final goal. In the ocean you do four actual scuba dives, spending a
few minutes on each dive performing the skills you learned in the pool with
your instructor. After the skills portion, you will spend the rest of the
dive swimming with schools of tropical fish, looking at colorful corals, and
perhaps, even see an endangered sea turtle.
If there is a conflict with your schedule we
can often work around this to accommodate your schedule.
Private Lessons are also available where you can finish your certification
course in as little as three days. Our private courses offer great flexibility.
By private we mean, you let us know when you are available and we schedule
your classes to fit your needs.
The Open Water Scuba Course fee includes 2 two tank boat dives your logbook and gear rental.
