PADI Open Water Course

Start day: Orientation

On this day, you'll meet your instructor in the evening to complete paperwork and receive your diving manual. The group will watch an introductory video.

Day 1: Theory + practice in confined waters

The group will start the day in the pool for basic exercises to build confidence and learn equipment use. This is followed by a theory classroom session providing essential knowledge for diving.

Day 2: Theory + practice in shallow open water (12 m / 40 ft)

After a classroom session and a test on theoretical knowledge, the group will head to the boat for two dives in open water, maxing out at a depth of 12 meters or 40 feet.

Day 3: Open water dives (18 m / 60 ft)

On the final day, the group will complete the last two open-water dives. By the end, you'll learn to set up equipment, control buoyancy, clear your mask, and assist divers in distress, earning your PADI Open Water Diver certificate.

Important

You should wait at least 24 hours after your last dive to get on a plane or visit high-altitude areas.
