About this experience

If you're short on time to complete the PADI Open Water Diver certification, no problem, PADI Scuba Diver is a great way to get started.

What to expect

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 become 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.

The PADI Scuba Diver course is your first step towards a lifetime of adventure. The course is comprised of three sections:
1. Knowledge Development which covers the principles, concepts, and terms you need to know for dive safety and enjoyment.
2. Confined Water Dives where you will learn and practice scuba skills in a pool. You will make 3 confined dives that take you through the same steps you follow when you make open water dives.
3. Open Water Dives where you will complete your training, total of 2 dives.

The course will take 2 days as the following: Day 1: 3 Confined sessions, Day 2: 2 Open Water Dives OR VIP option will take only one full day from 9:00AM till 3:00PM

For the two days option: No need to be consecutive days, you can choose the available dates suits you.
