The fun part

Well, practically everything, because learning to dive is fantastic. You breathe underwater your first time (something you will never forget) and learn what you need to become a certified diver. During the course you will do at least five pool dives and four dives at sites in the area under the supervision of your PADI OWSI Instructor.

What will you learn?

• Extremely fantastic and fun is diving.
• What you should keep in mind with the diving equipment for your local diving environment.
• How to plan yourself and perform real dives.
• How to prevent and manage possible problems.

The PADI Open Water Diver course consists of three main phases:

• Desarrollo de conocimientos (online, estudio en casa o en un aula) para comprender los principios básicos del buceo autónomo.
• Immersions in confined waters to learn the basic diving techniques.
• Open water dives to review your skills and explore!

The diving equipment you will use

In the PADI Open Water Diver course, you will learn how to use basic diving equipment, and standard accessories. The equipment you carry varies somewhat, depending on whether you are going to dive to a tropical, temperate or cold water site. We will provide you what is necessary.

The teaching materials you will need

The manual is included !! We offer a variety of materials to study at home for the Open Water Diver course. Although the “PADI Touch” is the most convenient option, you can choose a DVD book or a DVD-ROM multimedia package.

The PADI Open Water Diver materials cover what you need to know about basic diving techniques. For each concept you will read a description and you will see a demonstration video. Next, you will jump into the pool (or a pool-like environment) to practice those techniques with your instructor. Later, as a certified diver, you will use the course materials as a reference guide for future diving adventures and to review what you have learned.
