There are no hidden costs in our course fees, all you need to supply is your own mask and snorkel and we take care of everything else!

1. Online eLearning – We will issue you with an eLearning key. This will allow you to complete the theory portion of the course online in your own time. – Please ensure the eLearning is completed (and uploaded to PADI) before you attend the pool session
2. Confined water (pool) session – We will spend the two days in our indoor heated pool learning the skills you need to become an Open water diver.

You will also need to book and complete the Open Water sessions to gain your certification
