   PADI DIVER TRAINING COURSES
 

PADI SCUBA DIVER  -  Duration 3 days  -  Cost: 295 Euros
This course is made up of the first 3 theory modules and confined water training sections 1, 2 and 3, also open water dives 1 and 2 from the PADI Open Water Diver course. Although this is a complete lifetime certification, it does have restrictions. You will be trained to dive to a maximum depth of 12 metres and must dive under the supervision of a diving professional. However, at any time after completion you can 'upgrade' to the Open Water Diver certification. This course is perfect for someone who is unable to give up a lot of time due to other commitments.
 

UPGRADE FROM SCUBA DIVER TO OPEN WATER DIVER  -  Duration 2 days  -  Cost: 195 Euros
This option is is designed for those who already hold the PADI Scuba Diver certification and wish to 'upgrade' to the PADI Open Water Diver certification. It consists of theory modules 4 and 5, confined water training sections 4 & 5, and open water dives 3 & 4. Your theory from the Scuba Diver course will also be refreshed to prepare you for a final exam which is based on all 5 theory modules.
 
PADI OPEN WATER DIVER  -  Duration 4 to 5 days  -  Cost: 425 Euros
This course comprises 5 theory modules with a final exam, 5 confined water training sections and 4 open water dives. Following successful completion of the course you will be certified to dive to 18 metres and will have been trained to a sufficient level to dive with a buddy of equal or higher qualification and without instructor supervision.
 
PADI OPEN WATER DIVER REFERRAL  -  Duration 2 days  -  Cost: 250 Euros
The Open Water referral is designed for those who do not wish to commit 4 or 5 days of their well earned holiday. The idea is that all theory, including the final exam and confined water sections are completed elsewhere, be it at your local dive centre at home or on a previous holiday. We simply 'fill in the gaps' by brushing up your theory and completing the required 4 open water dives prior to certifying you as a PADI Open Water diver. Please contact us for information on the correct paperwork you need to bring with you from your previous training.
