Details
Would you like to take your first steps on the path of scuba diving with an internationally recognized certification? The PADI Open Water Diver is the first level that will then allow you to dive anywhere in the world. Our very complete training with our state-certified instructor requires between 3 and 5 days to be completed.
Goal of the course
The PADI Open Water Diver certification allows you to dive under supervision up to 20 m and become autonomous in the management of your equipment and yourself.
Meeting & Preparation
We will meet directly at our office. You can learn about the theory beforehand or use of the club's classroom. Then the time will come for the first dive: you will pick up your equipment and change on site before receiving a briefing on what awaits you.
Course content
In addition to the theoretical lessons, the PADI Open Water Diver course includes two technical dives of one hour each and four open water dives at 6, 10, 15 and 20 m. The training can be done in three days but we recommend that you do it in five days if you have the time.

Maeva Plongée is really a responsible, professional diving school. The crew is helpfull and great care has been taken for divers safety.
The location of the diving school is indeed 'near' Ajaccio. From the outskirts of Ajaccio to the diving school is almost a 15 minutes drive. The diving school is located on a beach with shops and water play at hand so after lessons we could find plenty of relaxation without the need of stepping into the car.
The course itself is not a breeze to walk through. But this has nothing to do with the diving school.
