If you've always wanted to learn how to scuba dive, discover new adventures or simply see the wonderous world beneath the waves, this is where it starts. The PADI Open Water Diver course is the world's most popular scuba course, and has introduced millions of people to the adventurous diving lifestyle. A Referral course starts you out with the classroom and pool work of your certification. Then, while on your trip down south you can complete yor ocean dives in tropical waters. This approach saves a lot of time while your on vacation so you don't spend days sitting in a classroom, or pool.
The PADI Open Water Diver Referral course consists of two main phases:

The fun part about this course is...well, just about all of it because learning to dive is incredible. You breathe underwater for the first time (something you'll never forget) and learn what you need to know to become a certified diver. During the course, you'll make at least five pool dives under the supervision of your PADI Instructor.
In the PADI Open Water Diver course, you learn to use basic scuba gear including a dive computer, and standard accessories. The equipment you wear will be chosen by your TORPEDO RAYS Instructor to ensure your comfort throughout the course.
Recently, PADI has enhanced this program by offering the learning material in an Elearning environment via the internet or tablet. Let us know your preference!
