If you've always wanted to learn how to scuba dive, discover new adventures or simply see the wonderous world beneath the waves, this is where it starts. The PADI Open Water Diver course is the world's most popular scuba course and has introduced millions of people to the adventurous diving lifestyle. This is your gateway to amazing adventure.

If you've participated in a Discover Scuba Diving experience , the skills you learned may be credited towards a portion of the full PADI Open Water Diver course certification.
The fun part about this course is...well, just about all of it because learning to dive is incredible. You breathe underwater for the first time (something you'll never forget) and learn what you need to know to become a certified diver. During the course, you'll make at least five pool dives and four dives at local dive sites under the supervision of your PADI Instructor.
In the PADI Open Water Diver course, you learn to use and get comfortable wearing basic scuba gear including a dive computer, and standard accessories. We would advise that every diver gets a mask and snorkel for hygene reasons. The equipment you wear will be chosen by a DIVEWORLD professional to ensure your comfort throughout the course. We advise to add the PADI Dry Suit Specialty to the basic course to increase you comfort while training?
Adding the PADI Dry Suit certification at the same time as PADI Open Water? Dive dry and warmer and gain valuable extra skills during your course adds just £130 to the cost of the basic course. Check out our Deluxe package.
