In the second portion of this course, one of our expert instructors will guide you through five pool dives where you will master the equipment and skills necessary for you to dive safely in open water. These are usually completed in a single day or half day.
Part Three:
The last portion of this course involves four open water ‘checkout’ dives, where you will perform some of the skills you mastered in the pool, and, under the supervision of our instructor, you will experience and explore open ocean diving. This portion involves two half-day boat trips-two dives per day.
