Take the first step to becoming a certified Open Water Diver with the PADI Scuba Diver course. In just one and a half days, you can become a qualified diver! The Scuba Diver course covers all the basics of scuba diving. It includes three of the five knowledge development sections of the Open Water course, the first three of the confined water sessions and the first two of four open water training dives. Once you have completed the practical skill assessments and knowledge review quizzes, you’ll earn your certification and be qualified to dive accompanied by a diving professional to a maximum depth of 12m/40ft. All your training can be credited towards the Open Water Diver course if you wish to progress at a later time.
