The experience
Scuba Diver is the subset of Open Water for people who do not have the days to spare. It covers the first three of the five knowledge sections, the first three confined-water sessions and two open-water dives.
It certifies you to dive to 12 metres under the direct supervision of a PADI professional rather than independently with a buddy, and it credits in full toward Open Water later. Equipment, instruction and certification processing are included.
Highlights
- PADI Scuba Diver certification
