Why PADI Open Water?
As a certified PADI Open Water Diver, the most widely recognized
and respected rating in the world, you have the freedom to dive
with a buddy independent of a professional. If you already tried
a PADI Discover Scuba Diving experience or are PADI Scuba Diver
certified, check with your instructor to see how credit from these
courses may apply to the open water program.

What
do I need to start?
Virtually anyone who is in good health, reasonably fit, and comfortable
in the water can earn a PADI Open Water Diver certification. You
must be older than the age of 14 to begin the PADI Open Water Diver
program. For those of you who are not above the age of 14 and would
like to participate in the PADI Open Water Diver Program, then the
PADI Jr Open Water Diver program is available to you. If you are
between 10 and 14 or have a child between these ages, there is a
PADI Junior Open Water Diver program available.
A PADI Jr Open
Water Diver between the ages of 10 and 11 years may only dive with
a PADI Professional, a certified parent or certified guardian to
a maximum depth of 12 metres/40 feet. |

What will I do?
Throughout the course, you’ll learn fundamentals of scuba diving,
including dive equipment and techniques. You earn this rating by
completing five pool dives and knowledge development sessions and
by making four open water (ocean or lake) dives.
