Beginner open water diving course
If you have already tried a Test dive, where with the equipment provided and the guidance of an expirienced diver you could dive 5 meters below the surface of the sea for about 20 minutes you already know what it’s like to breath through a tube and see clearly through a mask. But you are not diving on your own, and you may only see clams, crabs and smaller fish on the sea floor. But this is not the end of the road…
After finishing the beginner open water diving course you can:
- dive in pair or in group under the surveillance of a dive leader,
- dive up to 18 meters deep,
- dive for up to 50 minutes in both sweet and salt water,
