Full PADI Open Water ~ NAUI Scuba Diver Certification Course

---

This is the first exciting step into a lifetime of underwater experiences. Cozumel is the perfect place to get certified. The warm, crystal clear waters are inviting and our instructors are top-notch. 

Our primary goal is to ensure that you become a confident, skilled scuba diver who feels comfortable diving in many underwater environments. Our two instructors have certified over 1400 divers. They are experts at assessing a student's comfort level and concerns and addressing these early. Both have excellent English and Spanish communication skills. 

Duration of Course: 2-3 half days, depending on how quickly you progress through the academics and skills

Location of Course: The first 1-2 days are taught from our dive shop. The final day of certification is done from the boat.
