Completion of this course will result in the first level of scuba certification as a PADI® Open Water Diver. It will stress the necessary skills, physical conditioning, and knowledge for the exciting world of scuba diving and will include diving skills such as hand signals, buoyancy control, equipment usage and diver safety. Students are required to supply personal dive gear (mask, fins, snorkel, boots, and a surface marker buoy). A highly-trained PADI Instructor will teach you how to scuba dive in a relaxed, supportive learning environment. An instructor will contact you before the class begins to answer questions and orient you to class schedule and activities. SCUBA diving is not without risk. To participate in SCUBA training, a completed medical questionnaire stating that you are in good health is required. If you are intending to certify a child who is either 13 or 14 years old, we offer a PADI Junior Open Water Diver option. Instructor, Dean Vincent PADI48050
