as a PADI Open Water diver. You have the option of either weeknight or
weekend classes, whatever fits your schedule. Or if you are really
busy we will schedule a private class for you. We run classes year round
so call us to reserve a spot in the next one! Either

Please keep in mind that
there is a separate charge for the optional

Prerequisites
To enroll in the PADI Open Diver course or Junior Open
Water Diver course, you must:
The Fun Part
The fun part about this course is . . . well, just about all of
it because learning to dive is incredible. You breathe
underwater for
the first time (something you’ll never forget) and learn what
you need to know to become a certified diver. During the course,
you’ll make at least five pool dives and four dives at local
dive sites under the supervision of your PADI Instructor.
Get College Credit
You may be able to earn college
credit for the PADI Open Water Diver course!
The Scuba Gear You Use
In the PADI Open Water Diver course, you learn to use basic
scuba gear including
a dive
computer,
and standard accessories.
Check with us about the gear
you’ll use during this course. You can find most everything at
the Divers
Cove.
The Learning Materials You
Need
PADI offers a variety of home-study materials for the Open Water
Diver course. While eLearning is
the most convenient option, you may also chose a book and DVD
package or a multimedia DVD-ROM.
PADI’s Open Water Diver materials cover what you need to know
about basic scuba diving skills, terminology and safety
procedures. For each concept you’ll read a description and watch
a video demonstration. Then you’ll jump in the pool (or
pool-like environment) to practice these skills with your
instructor. Later, as a certified diver, use the course
materials as a reference guide for future diving adventures and
to review what you learned.
Note: Enroll in the PADI
Open Water Diver Course Online for
immediate computer-based access to the manual and video
integrated into seamless, guided online learning.
