Learn to Dive
PADI Open Water Diver is the first scuba certification level that allows you to dive independently (with a buddy but without an Instructor or other scuba diving professional).
A highly-trained PADI Instructor will teach you to scuba dive in a relaxed, supportive learning environment. Learning to dive can be done in as little as 5 weeks, like all of the great sports - it can be learned quickly but take a lifetime to master!
Routes to certification
There are several ways to learn to dive, it depends on; you, where you will be doing most of your diving and, what you want from the sport.

Groups, Families & Organisations
More than two? It's highly likely you'll enjoy a private course and with more people getting involved there are more savings to be had. The course is the same irrespective of age (although the delivery differs slightly) so if you're looking for a family activity that everyone will love then we think you're in the right place!
How far will you go?
Upon completion of your Open Water Diver certification, the world becomes a smaller place and your horizons widen.
Choosing to stay an OW diver means you can enjoy diving up to 18m with a buddy anywhere in the world, the beauty of this sport is the opportunities it offer to progress and challenge in areas of interest.
