Scuba Diver Course
Why PADI Scuba Diver Course?
Thinking of getting certified for an upcoming vacation, but don't have the time to put into a regular diver course? Now there's a quick and easy program designed especially for you! The PADI Scuba Diver program is a pre-entry level certification that is perfect for vacationers or people who only plan to dive a couple times a year. As a subprogram of the PADI Open Water Diver program, the PADI Scuba Diver rating allows you to get certified quickly and easily by minimizing time constraints. With the PADI Scuba Diver certification you can dive under the direct supervision of a PADI Divemaster, Assistant Instructor, Instructor or higher professional on your next vacation or dive trip.

What do I need to start?
Anyone age 15 or over in good health, reasonably fit, and comfortable in the water qualifies for the PADI Scuba Diver program.  Anyone who is age 10 to 14 and  can earn a PADI Jr. Scuba Diver certification.

What will I do?
Home study is the first step toward a full PADI Scuba Diver certification. All of the required classroom and pool training for recreational PADI Scuba Diver certification can be completed, in most cases, in as little as two days. The course is broken into three parts to offer students the highest level of training combined with the utmost flexibility to fit into anyone’s busy schedule. The course consists of:

Home Study
Students will begin at home, at their own pace, by reading the PADI Open Water Course book and watching the accompanying DVD/Video. Students will complete the homework (Knowledge Reviews) at the end of each of the five chapters of the book.  Knowledge Reviews must be completed prior to class attendance.

Classroom Work
Students will be lectured and tested by one of our PADI instructors. Lectures will cover only the information students are having difficulty with or do not understand. Classroom work is on average an afternoon commitment.

Pool Sessions
Students will learn all water skills in one of our contracted pool facilities under the direct supervision of one of our PADI instructors.

What happens next?
Upon completing your pool session,you and your instructor go over the skills you developed in the confined water training during open water dives. These dives are usually completed in just one day. After the successful completion of the last open water dive, you will be awarded your PADI certification card which is good for a lifetime of fun and enjoyment. The PADI card will be recognized all over the world as a certification that you are a safe and properly trained PADI Scuba Diver.

What will it cost?
The complete scuba diver course which includes classroom work, SCUBA equipment, pool training, and two open water dives is $130.00 plus course materials. Students need only provide mask, fins and snorkel, explosure suit, and dive boots
