What You Learn
The PADI Open Water Diver course consists of
three main phases: Knowledge Development
online, home study or in a classroom ) to
understand basic principles of scuba diving;
Confined Water Dives to learn basic scuba skills;
Open Water Dives to review your skills and
explore!
The Scuba Gear You Use
In the PADI Open Water Diver course, you learn to use basic scuba gear including a dive computer, and standard accessories. The equipment you wear varies somewhat, depending upon whether you're diving in tropical, temperate or cold water.
The PADI Open Water Course will teach you everything you need to know to become a safe and
confident diver. Your course will cover all aspects from dive equipment to techniques. You will
complete a number of theory sessions accompanied by hands on training in the pool (or in pool like
conditions).
Once you are confident in the pool you will then take these skills out to the open water. In open water
you will experience four dives where you will get the opportunity to try your skills while enjoying the
beauty of the underwater world. Upon successful completion of this programme you will become a
Certified PADI Open Water Diver, giving you the freedom to dive with a buddy instead of a
professional diving guide.
