Diving training from scuba diving to Technical Trimix Diver ...

For us, diving is a sport where it is important to get good advice on training and equipment selection. Diving training is a matter of trust and the purchase of equipment is just as much. The diving equipment serves individual comfort and personal safety. It is therefore very important to us to speak to you personally in order to select the right course / equipment for you. With this personal advice, we would like to meet your needs exactly. We take as much time as you need for this. If you have a special appointment request, you are welcome to make an appointment with us (also outside of opening hours), where you will be advised all by yourself. We carry good branded equipment and you can also borrow and try equipment from us (also dry suits).

What to expect

The PADI Open Water Diver certification is recognized worldwide and enables independent diving with a diving partner, the rental of equipment in all dive centers and dive shops.

The participant of the PADI OWD course first learns to use the diving equipment in a simple and pleasant way in the swimming pool.

The OWD course includes theory lessons (approx. 5 hours), 5 swimming pool modules and 4 open water dives. To prepare for the theory lessons, you should work through the OWD exercise book at home and watch the OWD DVD. In the theory class, the subject is discussed again and then there is a final quiz.

As soon as your training dives in open water have been approved by your instructor, you will receive your "Open Water Diver" certification from PADI! Now you can rent diving equipment for life and dive worldwide to a depth of 18 meters!
