Active Diving’s learn to scuba dive program caters for all budding scuba divers. Our dive facilities are always in demand for the diver that wishes to learn to dive or increase his/her diving skills through the PADI learn to scuba dive courses

PADI Scuba Diver (learn to scuba dive in 2days)
This is the first level of diver certification. On completion you will be licensed to dive anywhere in the world under the supervision of a PADI professional to a maximum depth of 12 meters.
During this course you will learn to scuba dive through all the basic underwater skills necessary to enable you to enjoy scuba diving safely in three confined [shallow] water modules. You will then put these skills into practice, and have a lot of fun, in two Open Water dives. Alongside the water sessions are onboard video assisted lessons and three multiple choice quizzes.
From this level you can easily continue on towards the Open Water Diver, which allows you to dive to 18 meters.

PADI Open Water Course (learn to scuba dive in 3/4 days)
The course consists of five confined [shallow] water modules and four Open Water dives. By the end of the course students will be comfortable with the equipment and be able to relax and enjoy diving in less demanding conditions, even using a compass to plan and navigate a simple dive route.
The use of a video reduces classroom time, giving you more opportunity to get wet, and four multiple choice quizzes lead you in easy stages to the final theory exam.
Now you can dive - but how do you take underwater photos, recover that anchor, name that fish …? As an Open Water Diver you will want to learn to scuba dive as well as discovering more about the underwater world - the way forward is through Adventure Dives.

PADI Advanced Open Water Course (3 days)
Your lifetime of diving pleasure and fun is just beginning. The PADI Adventures in Diving Program is designed to increase your diving experience and knowledge in a controlled and safe environment.
Each Adventure Dive stands alone, allowing you to explore individual interests. Completion of three Adventure Dives earns you the PADI Adventures Diver rating. Completion of five Adventure Dives, including the Deep and Navigation dives earns you the PADI Advanced Diver certification. Adventure Dives completed with other PADI Dive Centres will be counted towards either of these certifications.
Each Adventure Dive includes knowledge development through the use of the PADI Adventures in Diver manual, Instructor presentation and video. This is followed by an Open Water dive designed to put your knowledge into practice in a safe and enjoyable way.
