What does it cover?

The PADI Open Water Diver Course online provides the knowledge development portion you need. |

What else is required to complete the course?
Prior to certification as a PADI Open Water Diver, you'll visit Adventure Sports Newmarket Inc. to complete your training. You'll take a short eLearning Quick Review to confirm your understanding of safety-related material from the course, and you must successfully complete five confined water dives and four open water training dives with your PADI Instructor. You learn and master each of the required skills in confined water (swimming pool-like conditions) first before moving on and showing your instructor that you can comfortably repeat those skills in open water. As a PADI Open Water Diver, you will be a certified entry-level diver able to rent dive gear, get air fills and dive anywhere in the world in better or similar conditions to those you've trained in.
You will also need your own personal scuba quality mask, snorkel, and pair of fins to complete your confined and open water dives for the course. If you already own them, great!
