The JOWD certification course is a course that allows children between 10 and 14 years of age to enter the diving world. Children can start studying theory at home with the online courses, or if they want, they can follow the lessons in the centre.
You can also choose to book the basic course or silver. The difference between the three options is the number of dives you want to do. The basic course consists of 4 dives, the silver in 6. Regardless of which option you choose for your children, the children at the end of the course can take the exam for certification.
Goal of the courseThe course aims to pass the Junior Open Water Diver certification. After the theoretical part, a certain number of dives will be made (4 or 6) the first dives will be made near our center, in the bay. After the third dive in the bay the very good kids can start to try diving in open waters. In this case the children will be taken with our boat to the best spot according to the weather conditions of the day.
