PADI
Open Water Diver course
Now is the time to dive
into the PADI Open Water Diver
course, the most popular dive
program in the world! This is
your ticket to a lifetime of
intense adventure with PADI, the
dive company that sets the
standards in the global diving
community.
Why PADI
Open Water?
As a certified PADI Open
Water Diver, the most widely
recognized and respected rating
in the world, you have the
freedom to dive with a buddy
independent of a professional.
If you already tried a PADI
Discover Scuba Diving experience
or are PADI Scuba Diver
certified, check with your
instructor to see how credit
from these courses may apply to
the open water program.
What do I
need to start?
Virtually anyone who is
in good health, reasonably fit,
and comfortable in the water can
earn a PADI Open Water Diver
certification. You must be older
than the age of 14 to begin the
PADI Open Water Diver program.
For those of you who are not
above the age of 14 and would
like to participate in the PADI
Open Water Diver Program, then
the PADI Jr Open Water Diver
program is available to you. If
you are between 10 and 14 or
have a child between these ages,
there is a PADI Junior Open
Water Diver program available.
A PADI Jr Open Water Diver
between the ages of 10 and 11
years may only dive with a PADI
Professional, a certified parent
or certified guardian to a
maximum depth of 12 metres/40
feet.
What will I do?
Throughout the course, you’ll
learn fundamentals of scuba
diving, including dive equipment
and techniques. You earn this
rating by completing five pool
dives and knowledge development
sessions and by making four open
water (ocean or lake) dives.
How long
will it take?
PADI programs are
performance based. You proceed
as you demonstrate mastery of
the course skills. This allows
you to work at a pace that is
comfortable for you.
