PADI Scuba Diver

FOR BEGINNERS (NO EXPERIENCE REQUIRED)

The PADI Scuba Diver course is a great option for those who are short on time but still want to become a certified diver. This course is a subset of the PADI Open Water Diver course and serves as an intermediate step towards earning that certification. With a PADI Scuba Diver rating, you can dive under the direct supervision of a PADI Professional up to a maximum depth of 12 metres/40 feet. You can also obtain air fills, rent or purchase scuba equipment, and participate in dive activities as long as you are properly supervised. If you decide to continue your dive training, you can complete the PADI Open Water Diver certification and take certain specialty diver courses.
