Open Water Course

The PADI Open Water course is a 3-4 days course
to get your diving certification.

Once certified, you can dive
everywhere in the world as a certified diver.

The course is divided in 3 parts :

• Knowledge development : You will have access to the PADI digital Open Water manual. This part can be done online at home before your vacation. The course consists in 5 academic modules with videos, 4 short quizzes, and the final exam.
• Confined Water sessions : In shallow water, you will practice different skills with your instructor. The skills learned in these sessions will help you throughout your life as a diver to enjoy and dive safely in all conditions. There are 5 confined water sessions in total, which your instructor will schedule during your training into 1 or 2 sessions, depending on your needs and abilities. We usually do 2 half-days of confined water sessions.
• 4 Open Water training dives : You will complete 4 training dives in the sea from our boat, where, under the supervision of your instructor, you will apply the skills you have just learned during the other sessions, and enjoy exploring of our local reefs. Those 4 dives are done in 2 half-days (2 dives per day in the morning, from 8:30 am to 1 pm).

At the end of the course, you will receive the PADI certification E-card, and will be able to dive everywhere in the world as a certified diver.

You don’t have 4 days for this course? The Scuba Diver course (2 days) is an alternative to get certified with limitations!
