Our PADI Open Water referral course lets you complete the entire pool and all required academics sessions locally, then finish the four ocean dives on your trip.
You can get through 2/3 of your open water certification course in one day with us and then earn the last 1/3 of your dive certification while on vacation.
We'll even prepare your referral paperwork so you can walk right into your vacation destination dive shop and you are good to go.
You'll learn the basics in the pool with us, then complete the final leg of your certification process on your holiday/vacation adventure.
It's easy, just call or book online. Then one of our instructors will call you to verify your Saturday. Please keep in mind that this is a performance based course and typically the single day is adequate to complete the skills but on occasions individuals require additional training sessions to master the required skills. Private instruction is also available upon request.
Includes:
- PADI Open Water eLearning home study code.
- Pool training and quick review session offered on Saturdays (about 3-4 pool time & 1hr homework review time, depending on group size)
- All of the scuba diving rentals, but you'll need to buy some personal basics like defog solution, mask, snorkel & fins at our shop at student discounts.
- Fun and safe lessons with top rated instructors and facilities.
- YES it can be DONE IN ONE DAY!
Please pick up your gear a couple days before, study well, be well rested and mentally prepared for a fast-paced group course of 2-8 fellow students.
