Description

Itinerary

The Open water is a 3 days training with different steps. By the end of the course, you'll have the skills and knowledge to dive at home or abroad and be an ambassador for the underwater world.
Theory: explain you all the fundamental of scuba diving. It will cover a range of topics such as pressure-depth relationships, the underwater environment, dive planning, and equipment.

Pool Work: During pool (or “confined water”) classes, students practice basic diving skills in the pool. Divers practice all the skills that they use on open water dives like ear equalization and mask removal and replacement in this controlled environment before entering the open water.

Open Water Dives: Under the watchful eye of an instructor, you will apply the knowledge and skills learned in the theory and pool sections of the course on real open water dives.

Choose the eLearning option and study from home. You will start directly with the pool and the next day you will be a certified diver!
