Our popular beginners open water course is divided into 3 parts:
The classroom work covers all basic dive knowledge and theory. Your instructor will take you through all you need to know about scuba equipment, diving safely and simply getting the most enjoyment from your diving. You will learn everything you need to know in order to safely plan and execute a dive.
Confined water dives; in shallow calm water just like a swimming pool where you will learn and practice how to use the scuba equipment, some basic dive skills, and experience breathing underwater for the first time!
The third component is the open water part of the training, when you will take your newly acquired dive knowledge and skills to the sea and experience diving on the fringing reef surrounding the island. Starting with dive sites well suited to the novice diver your instructor will take you to a maximum depth of 40ft/12m on the first dives you make. By the end of the course your instructor will have accompanied you down to a maximum depth of 60ft/18m!
