Tres Aquas Adventures
PADI Confined Water/Open Water Diver Course
(Course description from PADI)
Now is the time to dive into the PADI Open Water Diver course,
the most popular dive program in the world! This is your ticket to a lifetime of intense
adventure.
As a certified PADI Open Water Diver, the most widely recognized and respected rating in the world,
you have the freedom to dive with a buddy independent of a professional. If you already tried
a PADI Discover Scuba Diving experience or are PADI Scuba Diver certified, check with your
instructor to see how credit from these courses may apply to the open water program.
Virtually anyone who is in good health, reasonably fit, and comfortable in the water can earn a PADI
Open Water Diver certification. If you are between 10 and 14 or have a child between these ages,
there is a PADI Junior Open Water Diver program available.
Throughout the course, you’ll learn fundamentals of scuba diving, including dive equipment
and techniques. You earn this rating by completing five pool dives and knowledge development
sessions and by making four open water (ocean or lake) dives.
PADI programs are performance based. You proceed as you demonstrate mastery of the course skills.
This allows you to work at a pace that is comfortable for you. Open Water Certification Checkout Dive
To complete your Open Water Diver certification, you are required to complete a short series of check out dives
in a lake or ocean environment. For those that want to complete the certification quickly and move on to
bigger and better courses and vacations, we offer a two day dive series in Lake Pleasant.
For those divers that want to complete their certification in a more picturesque setting, we periodically offer
trips to Mexico and California or on scheduled trips to complete your checkout dives.
The course price includes a series of 4 to 6 dives over a two day period with our PADI certified instructors.
You will be expected to provide your own equipment, or you can rent from us at a special combo price. Travel and
lodging accommodations can be arranged through us or separately.
