What to expect

By registering for this, you are scheduling one of two boat trips of open water checkout dives. Once you book, we will need to schedule your early morning pool session ahead of this date as well as schedule you for a second boat day. Please contact us so we can work with you on your instruction schedule.
We can also help you get your eLearning assigned if you don't have that already. (not included, needs to be completed before beginning in-water training) It usually takes 6 - 12 hours to complete, so start well ahead of in-water day.

You will begin your certification ahead of time by independently completing the online course material.
You will learn skills in a confined water environment with your instructor first before you move onto to performing your skills in training dives in the open-water.
All diving gear is included for your training. For boat days, we provide bottled water and snacks.
The course will require at least 3 half-days in the water (or 1.5 days) to complete all requirements for open water certification.
