During the PADI Open Water Diver course, you’ll learn what you need to know to explore the underwater world using scuba. Most people find it a rewarding challenge.

The PADI Open Water Diver course includes three parts: Knowledge Development, Confined Water Dives, and Open Water Dives. Knowledge Development covers the principles, concepts and terms you need to know for dive safety and enjoyment. During the Confined Water Dives, you learn and practice scuba skills in a pool or water with pool-like conditions. You’ll enjoy making one or more minidives, which take you through the same steps you follow when you make open water dives. To complete training you practice, apply and demonstrate what you learn during four Open Water Dives at a local dive site.

Earning a PADI Open Water Diver certification shows that you met the course requirements. Dive centers and resorts require proof of certification before they will rent scuba equipment, fill scuba cylinders or book dive excursions. As a PADI Open Water Diver, you’ll be trained to a maximum depth of 18 metres/60 feet, and are qualified to dive in conditions as good as, or better than, those in which you trained. It’s just the beginning of a lifetime filled with dive adventures.

The PADI Open Water Diver course consists of three main phases:

Age Requirement: 10 years or older

Course Prerequisites: Able to swim; medically fit for diving

Time Commitment: Approximately 8-15 hours

In the PADI Open Water Diver course, you learn to use  basic scuba gear, including a mask, snorkel, fins, regulator, buoyancy control device and a tank. The equipment you wear varies, depending upon whether you’re diving in tropical, temperate or cold water.

Since masks, fins, and snorkels are personal items, each of my students is to provide their own. I can assist in finding the right gear to meet your physical requirements and budget. 

Other pricing available based on number of students and location.

All training Includes PADI eLearning, rental gear, and air fills.

Travel, lodging, and meals not included.
Gear purchase discounts available through local vendors at a discount when enrolled in a ScubaKevin training program.
