Learn to Dive - Open Water Dive Course
Scuba certification teaches you how to dive. Our courses are divided into three parts: 1) knowledge development 2) confined water training and 3) open water dives. It takes you progressively from beginning to end and it never pushes you beyond your comfort level. The ultimate goal is to help you gain the confidence you need to become a certified diver.
Complete the knowledge development modules prior to boarding. Once on board, our professional dive instructor will review the materials to make sure you are competent and comfortable.
For the confined water training, you’ll be transported to an island beach where one of our instructors will teach you and allow you to practice the skill segment of the course.
The open water dives will take place next. Within four dives, you will complete the drills to show you’ve obtained the necessary skills to pass your certification. After this, you are certified for life!
The Aqua Cat offers up to 26 dives each week, allowing you, along with your dive buddy, to practice your newly learned skills on multiple dives.

Open Water Checkouts (OWCO)
If you have completed the academic and confined water training for the open water certification and have a referral letter from your instructor, you may complete your open water checkouts on your dive trip with one of our instructors.
