Open Water Diver Course

Beginner scuba diving course - Learn to dive

The SSI (Scuba Schools International) Open Water Diver course is the gateway to the world of recreational diving. Designed for beginners, this course teaches the fundamentals of scuba diving, including theory, technique, and safety practices.

 

During the course, students learn:

  • Basic principles of diving and the equipment to be used.

  • Controlled breathing and buoyancy technique

  • Safety and risk prevention procedures

  • Confined water diving for practice

  • Open water diving for certification

 

Upon successful completion of the course, participants receive the globally recognized SSI Open Water Diver certification, allowing them to dive autonomously to a depth of 18 meters. Ideal for those who wish to explore the underwater world with confidence and safety!

 

The course has three components: a theoretical component done online, a practical component in a swimming pool, and a practical component in open water.

 

The course can be completed in about a month on weekends, or even considerably less depending on the student's availability and sea conditions.

 

For organized groups of four or more students, it is possible to arrange pool training sessions on dates and at a location to be agreed upon. Contact us for more information.

 

To get started today, you can enroll online, study the theory, and begin acquiring knowledge through SSI's e-learning system. On the e-learning platform, you will have online access to all learning materials in multiple languages, videos, and review quizzes.
