Throughout the PADI open water course, you will learn the basic fundamentals of scuba diving, including dive equipment, dive theory and techniques. You earn this rating by completing five pool dives and one knowledge development session and by making four open water (ocean or bay) dives. The ocean dives can be done at the beach or bay here locally in San Diego.

All students are expected to arrive to class on time with homework completed. Prior to starting the course, all students must answer all knowledge reviews in the PADI Open Water Manual and watch the PADI Open Water DVD. Any student whom does not complete homework assignment prior to class start time will not be able to start class.

Group Class Students: If you miss a class date for any reason other than a medical emergency without rescheduling or cancelling at least 24 hours in advance, you will be charged $50 per day missed.
