The PADI Open Water Diver course is a 3-day certification program that combines online learning, pool training, and four open water dives at beautiful national park sites
PADI Open Water Course – Your First Step to Becoming a Certified Diver
The PADI Open Water Diver course is the world’s most popular scuba certification program and your gateway to a lifetime of underwater exploration. This three-day course is designed to build your skills, confidence, and understanding of scuba diving in a supportive and exciting environment.
You'll start with eLearning before the course begins, allowing you to study the theory at your own pace. On Day 1, you'll join your instructor for a quick review of key concepts, followed by a full day of training in a swimming pool. Here, you’ll learn and practice essential scuba skills in calm, shallow water—everything from using your gear to managing buoyancy and handling potential underwater scenarios.
Over the next two days, you'll head out to sea aboard a dive boat for four open water dives at stunning national park dive sites. Under the guidance of your professional instructor, you’ll apply the skills you learned in the pool while diving to a maximum depth of 18 meters. Each dive builds your comfort and ability, and by the end of the course, you’ll have the skills and certification to dive anywhere in the world.
This is more than just a course—it’s the start of a new adventure, giving you the freedom to explore the underwater world with confidence and purpose.
