The Open Water course consists of 3 sections:
- Academic development: Here, you learn the theory of diving. This is covered in a mix of video, self-study and instructor briefings
- Confined water training: here, you master the essential skills of scuba, starting from the simple (breathing underwater) and working your way up to complex (removing/replacing your equipment underwater)
- Open water dives: now you get a chance to apply everything that you have learned by actually diving. We do 4 dives in the open water, where you repeat some of the skills that you learned earlier, and where you also get a chance to dive, enjoy yourself and soak in the wonders of the underwater world.
At the successful completion of this course, you receive a certification card from PADI or SSI, two of the largest diver training agencies in the world.
