OPEN WATER DIVER - 3 to 5-day course
This course is the most popular entry-level dive program in the whole world! Earn your ticket to a lifetime of adventure in scuba diving.
Throughout our PADI Open Water Diver course, you'll learn the fundamentals of safe scuba diving, including dive equipment, techniques, and planning. This certification allows you to rent scuba equipment, obtain air-fills and also enroll in PADI Continuing Education courses (PADI Adventure Diver, PADI Advanced Open Water Diver, or even PADI Specialties).
The PADI Open Water Diver certification is recognized worldwide. To earn this rating, you need complete five knowledge development sessions using the latest "GO DIVE" DVD or manual and video. These consist of knowledge review questions, quizzes and a final exam. In the five confined water training dives, your instructor will demonstrate and then you'll practice and master important diving skills. Finally, applying everything you have learned, you will make four open water dives at favorite dive sites around the British Virgin Islands.
