COURSES

Following are the various courses we offer, all of which are performance based, meaning that the time required to complete the course is related to logistical considerations and student needs

PADI Discover Scuba Diving. 1,600 Bt:

If you are not sure about diving, haven't got the time, or just want a look. This is your way to explore the marine environment, with an instructor. The D.S.D. includes orientation on land, a few skills under water and a tour of the surrounding coral reef. On completion of the D.S.D. you will receive a temporary, two week license to dive with a dive professional to a maximum of 12 m.

Additional dives in connection with this course can be made up to within two weeks.

Bubblemaker. 950 Bt:

The bubblemaker course is an introduction to scuba for children aged 8 - 12 years. It is a basic orientation on the equipment used, dive skills and fun in the swimming pool.

PADI Open Water. 7,800 Bt:

The Open Water course will take you through the PADI entry level in only 4 days/ 2 weekends. The O.W. course consists of 3 phases:

1) An academic part, where videos will be shown and course materials will be discussed and reviewed.

2) Then we will go through how the equipment works before entering the pool where important skills will be taught before moving into phase 3, "open water".

3) The last phase is our 4 dives in "Open Water", where skills will be reviewed before an under water tour of various sites. On completion of the Open Water course, you will be qualified for life, be allowed to purchase dive equipment and dive with your certified friends down to a maximum of 18 meters.

After finishing your Open Water, you can go straight on to this 2/3 days experience development course. The Advanced course is a fun way to learn how to safely plan and conduct a deep dive (18- 30 meters) and navigate under-water.
