PADI OPEN WATER DIVER CERTIFICATION
The world's most popular scuba course
The PADI Open Water Diver course - This is where you start!
We form classes all year long because students are constantly enrolling month after month. As you enroll we build the class around your schedule as much as possible. You'll see some classes at the bottom because they have already formed and still have openings. But they are not all classes that are available so call or stop by to get started.
How you are scheduled for your Scuba Diving Class - It starts by stopping by or giving us a call
As students sign up, classes form around 3 to 6 students with a common date availability - we don't plop a date on the calender and say take it. We trying as much as possible to fit around your busy schedule.
Because of the High Enrollment each year, we continue to place new student's into classes through a "Pre-Registration List". We guarantee all students will be placed into a class quickly this dive season.
