PADI Open Water
The Open Water diver course is the right choice for those who want to dive freely with a dive buddy in the future beyond the depth of 12 meters (40 feet). This certificate is valid worldwide! In 3 to 3 ½ days you can gain your PADI Open Water certification. The first two days overlap with the PADI Scuba Diver program. On day 3 you get to exercise further skills in the pool and shallow water and expand your theoretical knowledge. There is a short multiple choice quiz to complete at the end of the course.

Nitrox
The PADI Nitrox certification is the ideal choice for divers looking to extend their underwater adventures while safely managing their exposure to nitrogen. With this certification, divers can use enriched air nitrox mixtures, which contain a higher percentage of oxygen than standard air, allowing for longer no-decompression dive times. The course typically spans for 2 days and combines theory, practical application, and safety measures to ensure divers understand the nuances of using nitrox.
Once certified, divers can enjoy the benefits of nitrox for dives, which often result in longer bottom times and shorter surface intervals. Whether exploring coral reefs, wrecks, or other underwater environments, the PADI Nitrox certification opens up new possibilities for diving enthusiasts around the world.

If you have never dipped your head under water the Discover Scuba Dive is exactly right for you. Your dive instructor will give you a short explanation of the basic rules for a safe and easy dive and will make you familiar with the equipment. Next are a few exercises in shallow water where you learn how to handle your diving equipment. Afterwards you will go on your first boat dive to a maximum depth of 12 meters (40 feet) and will experience the amazing world under the sea.
