-- Frequently Asked Questions --

The full course takes 3-4 days and if you choose to start at home with the PADI eLearning, it takes 2-3 days.

The PADI Open Water Diver course consists of three main phases:
1. Knowledge development to understand the basics of scuba diving.
2. Confined water/ pool dives to learn basic scuba skills.
3. Open water dives to use your skills and explore.

Knowledge Development:

During the first phase of your scuba lessons, you’ll learn the basic principles of scuba diving such as

  • What to consider when planning dives.
  • How to choose the right scuba gear for you.
  • Underwater signals and other diving procedures.
  • How to prevent and deal with problems.

You’ll learn this valuable information by reading it in the PADI Open Water Diver Manual or by using the PADI Open Water Diver eLearning. At the end of each chapter, you’ll answer knowledge reviews and quizzes about the material to ensure you understand it. Along the way, your patient and friendly PADI Instructor will help you with anything you don’t understand. At the end of the course, you’ll take a final exam that ensures you have thorough knowledge of scuba diving basics.

You’ll also watch videos that preview the scuba skills you’ll practice in a swimming pool or pool-like environment.
In addition to the video, your instructor will demonstrate each skill for you.

Confined Training Sessions:

You’ll develop basic scuba skills in a pool or in confined water – a body of water with pool-like conditions, such as the beach we have in front of the Jungle Divers’ shop. The basic scuba skills you learn during your certification course will help you become familiar with your scuba gear and become a skilled underwater explorer.
Some of the essential skills you learn include:

  • Setting up your scuba gear.
  • How to get water out of your mask.
  • Entering and exiting the water.
  • Buoyancy control.
  • Basic underwater navigation.
  • Safety procedures.
  • Underwater communication.

You’ll practice these skills with an instructor until you’re comfortable. When you’re ready, it’s time for your underwater adventure to begin at an open water dive site.

Open Water Training Sessions:

After your confined water dives, you’ll head to open water, where you and your instructor will make four dives over two days. The two first dives will have a max depth of 12 meters / 40 feet, while the last two will have a max depth of 18 meters / 60 feet.
On these dives you’ll get to explore the underwater world and you’ll apply the skills you learned in confined water while enjoying what the local environment has to offer.
You will have options about making these dives from shore or on our dive boats for the deeper Cozumel reefs.
