Learn to Dive

The PADI Scuba Diver course is a subset of the PADI Open Water Diver course. If you’re short on time but really want to became a diver, the PADI Scuba Diver rating might be right for you particularly if you expect to go scuba diving primarily with a dive guide.

This course is an intermediate step for earning an Open Water diver certification, if that’s your ultimate goal.

You’ll need 1 day to develop the practical skills to get a certification that qualifies you to dive under supervision of a PADI professional to a maximum depth of 12 mt/40 feet.

The PADI digital material, (manual and videos, we’ll send you in advance), allow you to prepare the theory and the knowledge reviews, to your own pace; once here, after a quick review, you’ll be ready to get wet!

1 full day to complete the practical part: 1 morning for the confined water and 1 afternoon for the 2 ocean dives is the time you’ll need to get the certification!

PADI Scuba Divers are qualified to:

1. Dive under the direct supervision of a PADI Professional to a maximum depth of 12 metres/40 feet.
2. Obtain air fills, rent or purchase scuba equipment and participate in dive activities as long as properly supervised.
3. Continue dive training by completing the PADI Open Water Diver certification and taking certain specialty diver courses.
