What to expect

The PADI Open Water Diver course consists of three main phases. Most people begin with home study, also known as knowledge development. In this phase, you'll learn about scuba equipment, hand signs and terminology, and watch videos of scuba diving skills. Knowledge development can be completed at your own pace – over a few weeks, or a matter of days. The most popular choice for knowledge development is PADI eLearning®, an independent study option where you read, watch videos, and take quizzes using your computer or mobile device. Study online or offline at your convenience. Next, you'll practice scuba skills in a pool or calm water environment (confined water). During these training sessions, you’ll get comfortable wearing scuba gear and learn essential skills such as how to clear water from your mask, do a pre-dive safety check, and make ascents and descents. When you're ready, you'll make your first dive in open water (the ocean or other large body of water). The Open Water Diver course includes four dives. During each one, you'll perform a few skills followed by a guided dive with your instructor. After completing your four training dives, you'll be a certified PADI Open Water Diver for life! Use your certification card anywhere in the world to book diving adventures, rent equipment and dive independently with a buddy to 18 metres/60 feet. If you spend a significant amount of time out of the water, you can quickly refresh your skills with the PADI ReActivate® program.
