Description
This course equips you with the basics of deep water diving i.e. scuba diving. The course includes both classroom and in-water sessions. At the end of the course, there will be an exam which, when passed, would certify you as a PADI Open Water Diver. This allows you to dive at every site all over the world to the max depth of 18 meters. (12 meters age 10-12 years old)
The classroom session covers all the knowledge that is important to you during your underwater adventure. There are PADI Open Water videos that you will go over at the beginning of the course. Together with knowledge review, quizzes, and exams, you can be sure that you’ll learn all that’s necessary to dive responsibly and safely.
The in-water sessions span across the 3-day course. From the water shallows enough that you can stand to the maximum depth of 18 meters. This depth increases slightly in each dive to keep you comfortable and safe. While you keep perfecting more skill in each dive, you are always one step closer to becoming a certified PADI Open Water diver.
