Course Details

Successful completion of the Open Water Diver certification requires finishing the online PADI Open Water Diver eLearning before the first pool session. Our $699.99 course cost includes the Open Water eLearning modules, which we will email to you.

The eLearning is followed by 3 confined-water dive sessions (pool sessions) where you’ll get familiarized with all the equipment. Your basic skills are taught and practiced in the safety of the pool.

To finish up the course you’ll complete 4 dives over two days in the open water of the Puget Sound. This will be your first chance to see all the amazing wildlife hiding just below the surface, from enormous plumose anemones to the Giant Pacific Octopus.

Then you’ll be ready to sign up for the Advanced Open Water class, or a variety of Diving Specialties where you learn specific specialized skills .
