Our Open Water Program is divided into two parts, Confined water which is classroom and pool training and the Open Water, which is the actual certification dives. The tuition for Confined Water training is $299.00 and includes your own PADI Open Water Diving Manuel, a loaner PADI DVD (while you are in training) instructor and pool fees, the use of tanks, regulator, buoyancy compensating device and weight belt for all pool sessions.
