how to get certified as a scuba diver

Sign up through links below !!

We are a PADI ( The Professional Association of Diving Instructors) Retail Dive Center....the world's largest scuba diving training organization in the world !


How long does a PADI course take? The required steps to become a certified diver are flexible and performance based. For new divers, an Open Water Diver certification on average takes 3-5 days. However, you can choose different options based on your learning preferences


Open Water Diver

The 1st step in becoming a certified scuba diver

This class is broken down into three parts : Knowledge Development, Confined Water  Training  and Open Water Dives. 

Knowledge Development

$246

We consider this part as home classroom studies. It includes all  materials required for the class such as lectures and video  presentations, quizzes  and exam by registering at the corresponding link below. This is payable to PADI when you sign up.

Confined Water Training

$200

There are 5 sessions in this category that covers all the skills presented  in the knowledge development  sessions in a clear shallow diving environment. We are so proud to offer you our own on site pool for your training. This makes scheduling a breeze by not having to rent or schedule through another facility.

Open Water Dives

$200

This section requires 4 open water dives in a REAL diving environment such as a lake, quarry or ocean over a period of two days.

Total Training Cost

$646

Possible Additional Costs

At Adventure Diving we will furnish all scuba gear such as regulator, alternate air source, gauges, buoyancy compensator, tank, weights and air fills through out the class. Students must  furnish their personal gear such as mask, open heel fins, snorkel and booties. Some may already have these items but if not we have a large selection in our shop. We try to discourage on-line shopping as to possible  ill fitting equipment  and inferior quality .
