Second day, Winter Schedule is Pool confined water training is 9:00am to 12:00 Saturday Morning, followed on Saturday from 10 am - 3 pm three dives at the open water site. Then on Sunday from 10 am - 3 pm we complete the last dive, and encourage you to do two additional Adventure Dives, at no additional cost. We include use of all equipment, including mask, fins, and snorkle, we also include the 2 to 5 air fills at the openwater training which normally cost $5 each, and we also include the certification card $20.00. We keep it simple without hidden cost.(Special Note: This is the Full PADI Open Water Diver Course, not just the Basic Scuba Diver Course.)
We provide all diving equipment you'll need for the course, on a rental basis.

PADI is the leading certification agency for recreational
scuba diving. Open Water certification enables the diver to buy and rent scuba
equipment, and to dive without instructor supervision. Learning to dive
is fun and can be accomplished by anyone who is at least 12 years old,
able to swim, and reasonably comfortable in the water.
The PADI Open Water Diver
course begins with academic training, designed to provide the knowledge necessary to begin diving safely.
Use of diving equipment and diving skills are then practiced in a swimming pool. Learning how to apply
the newly acquired knowledge and skills are then practiced during four open water dives.
We offer the PADI Open Water Diver certification
course in a flexible format tailored to meet your needs. Varying degrees of independent study is available
through the use of books,
video tapes, DVD, and computer CD-ROM. Pool sessions can be conducted in a public
facility or your home pool. Open water dives are possible at a variety
of Texas locations in Houston, Huntsville, and Austin, or at a tropical resort.
Fees
are consistent with those charged by local dive shops. We will be happy
to provide your basic personal equipment items such as mask, fins, and
snorkel for the course, and help in the selection.
The PADI Open Water Diver course materials include the
textbook, recreational dive planner, and dive log.
