Particularly if you expect to go scuba diving primarily in the company of a dive guide or if you have limited time to devote to scuba certification, consider becoming a PADI Scuba Diver. Maximum recommended depth for diving with this certification is 12 metres.

Ages 10 to 14 years qualify as Junior Scuba Divers. Ages 10 and 11 must dive with a PADI professional or certified parent or guardian. Ages 12 to 14 may only dive with a certified adult, not another junior. No further training is required to become a Scuba Diver, just a minimum age of 15.

Throughout the course, you'll learn fundamentals of scuba diving, including dive equipment and techniques. You earn this rating by completing five confined water dives and knowledge development sessions and by making four open water (ocean) dives.

All this can be completed in just 3 days and we will provide all the necessary training materials so that all you will need to bring is yourself.

Ages 10 to 14 qualify as Junior Open Water Divers. Ages 10 and 11 are restricted to a maximum recommended depth of 12 metres and must dive with a PADI professional or certified parent or guardian. Ages 12 – 14 may only dive with a certified adult, not another junior diver. On reaching the age of 15 an Open Water Diver card can be applied for without any further training.

In 2 days you will complete the 4 open water dives and remaining skills before being certified as an Open Water diver. We will require the referral paperwork signed off by your local dive centre.

First, you'll review the safety information you learned during your initial training. Then, you head to confined water to practice some of the fundamental scuba skills. There's also a supervised open water dive.
