The OWD certification course is the course that introduces you to the world of diving. You can start studying theory at home with the online courses, or you can follow the lessons in the center. You can also choose to book the basic course, silver or gold. The difference between the three options is the number of dives you wish to do. The basic course consists of 4 dives, silver of 6 and gold of 8.
Goal of the courseThe course aims to pass the Open Water Diver certification. After the theoretical part, a certain number of dives will be made (4,6, or 8) the first dives will be made near our center, in the bay. After the third dive in the bay you can start to try the open water dives. In this case we will take you with our boat to the best spot according to the weather conditions of the day.
Meeting & PreparationThe course can be done both in the morning and in the afternoon. Please arrive at our office on time. If you arrive by car, parking is widely available nearby. We will give you a summary of the theory for those who have followed the course online, or we will give lessons to those who have not followed the e-learning courses. From the very first dive you will prepare your own equipment under the careful supervision of our certified instructors.
