Now is the time to dive into the PADI Open Water Diver
course, the most popular dive program in the world! This is your
ticket to a lifetime of intense adventure with PADI, the dive
company that sets the standards in the global diving community.
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.
How long will it take?
PADI programs are performance based. You proceed as you
demonstrate mastery of the course skills. This allows you to
work at a pace that is comfortable for you.
What will I need?
PADI Open Water Crew-Pak
PADI Open Water Video or DVD
