PADI Open Water Beginner Diving Course in Costa Brava

Inclusive of:

• 4 dives.
• PADI eLearning (includes certification fees)
• Scuba equipment rental (full set)
• Weights/Weight Belt/Tank(s)

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

1) Knowledge development: We will provide you with all the material to start learning. It covers everything you need to know about basic techniques, terminology and safety procedures in scuba diving. For each concept, you read the explanations and watch the demonstration on a video.

2) Confined water dives: You’ll learn and practice the basic skills of diving as well as techniques to keep you safe and you’ll run though how to deal with a range of emergency situations should they occur. The sessions in confined waters are a lot of fun and give the opportunity to get familiar with the gear and techniques in a safe environment. We will perform them in a shallow area in our main dive site, in the sea.

3) Open water dives: This is what it’s all about – making your first dives in the ocean! During our four open water dives, you will perform various dive skills both under water and at the surface to make sure that you are a competent and safe diver. The training portion usually only takes up the first part of the dive, meaning that you will get to spend a big part of your time diving with your instructor and exploring the underwater world.

As soon as your open water training dives are approved by your instructor, you will be certified as a PADI Open Water Diver! This means you will be allowed to rent diving equipment and dive anywhere in the world down to 18 meters, lifelong!
