What do I need to start?

You need to be at least 10 years old, in good health, reasonably fit, and be capable of swimming 200m. You will also need to complete the following forms:

  • PADI Statement of Risks and Liability.
  • PADI/RSTC Medical Statement.
  • PADI Standard Safe Diving Practices.

What will I do?

The PADI Open Water Diver Course will make you familiar with the equipment you need, and provide you with the knowledge, skills and confidence necessary for safe and enjoyable diving. The course consists of five academic modules and five pool-based modules, commonly called 'the referral'. This is followed by four open water qualification dives.

We are able to offer you the following options:

  • After completing your academic and pool-based learning join us on one of our many trips to locations including Egypt, Malta and Stoney Cove. At these locations you will be able to complete your PADI Open Water Diver Course under the supervision of an Instructor from Galaxsea Divers.
     
  • Alternatively after completing 'the referral', take your new found skills to a PADI Dive Center at the destination of your choice for the completion of your PADI Open Water Diver Course.

How long will it take?

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.
