Courses
offered:
Course
1. OPEN WATER DIVER COURSE
“Open water” is the entry level course. After completing
it, the diver will receive a certificate which enables him
or her to dive with another certified diver. To make the course
easy for novice, students can now go diving in the swimming
pool right away, then develop their knowledge by watching
VDO and discussing its contents in classroom, then finish
their 20-skill training in the swimming pool before going
to the sea to repeat the skill training underwater as well
as to fun dive watching the unseen of the ocean in the 4 required
dives. Quizzess and final exam are done between the pool and
the open water dives or after if necessary.
Course
2. ADVANCED DiIVER COURSE
Unlike the open water diver course, the advanced diver
course focuses more on the practical skills of diving and
less on theory. The advanced course is a PADI course that
allows divers to understand what Scuba Diving is all about.
Deep & Navigation are the two mandatory dives and you
are required to do three other dives of your choice.
You
may choose three from these below to complete the advanced
course.
Night
dive,
Peak performance (buoyancy) dive,
Search & recovery dive
Drift dive
Wreck dive
Photography dive
These
skills are preformed over two full days.
ADVENTURE
DIVES (part of Advanced Dives)
We offer a range of 3 adventure dives as we know not everyone
would like to do a whole 5-dive advanced course. You could
choose from any dives above. Adventure dives are a relaxed
way to focus on one aspect of diving that you are interested
in or perhaps struggling with. Adventure dives allow you to
experience a new type of diving while learning a little bit
about the practical and theory sides of that specific type
of diving. The Sport of diving should be fun yet educational
at the same time.
Course 3. SPECIALTY DIVES
ENRICHED
AIR NITROX (EANX)
If you want to stay underwater a bit longer; feel less
tired after repetitive dives and have shorter surface intervals;
then the Enriched Air Nitrox Specialty Course is for you.
The course involves all theory aspects for planning and conducting
dives using enriched air and two dives on the enriched air.;
Prerequisites-;
Must be a minimum of 15 years of age; hold an entry level
open water certification; have completed a minimum of 20 logged
dives.; The course cost includes the loaning of all materials
required to complete the Nitrox Course and the two core dives
on enriched air.
DEEP
SPECIALTY:
A specialty course further certifies you in one specific
area of diving. In this case, Deep diving. This specialty
teaches you to plan and execute a safe, successful no-decompression
dives between the depths of 18m and to 30m depth. During the
deep dives, you will learn more about decompression sickness,
it’s causes, prevention and symptoms.
PHOTOGRAPHY
SPECIALTY:
The photography dives will touch on the basic skills of
how to take an underwater photo. When using a camera underwater
it is important to recognise that it will be harder to stay
in focus, use correct lighting and film a moving subject.
This dive also covers basic correct usage of your photography
equipment.
