What to expect
The PADI Open Water Diver course has three key phases: knowledge development, confined water dives, and open water dives. You start by learning scuba basics, equipment use, and safety skills through PADI eLearning® at your own pace, online or offline. Next, you’ll practice essential skills like mask clearing and safety checks in a pool or calm water. Finally, you’ll complete four open water dives with an instructor, applying your skills while exploring underwater. Upon completion, you’ll be certified to dive with a buddy up to 18m/60ft anywhere in the world for life, with the option to refresh your skills anytime using the PADI ReActivate® program.
