Open Water Course Content

Like many PADI courses, the Open Water Diver course consists of three main phases:

• Knowledge Development (studied online, independently prior to your first pool session) to understand basic principles of scuba diving
• Confined Water Dives to learn basic scuba skills
• Open Water Dives to practise your skills and start exploring!

The course typically takes place over one weeknight and two weekends:

• First weeknight:
  • Monday - 18.00 to 21.00: Meet and greet and go over equipment use
• First weekend:
  • Saturday - 08.00 to 2:00: pool session

• Second Weekend:
