Open Water Diver Course
This is where it all starts. This course is the most popular course and highly recognized anywhere in the world. You will receive a full Open Water certification upon completion of this course. It will allow you to dive up to 60 feet(18 meters) to explore the many beautiful reefs in Cozumel or within the world’s oceans.
The course is very intensive but yet very fun. There are three sections:
Knowledge Development- This section requires you to read five chapters of the Open Water textbook followed by answering questions and quizzes at the end of each chapter. You are required to watch a video which reiterates everything you learned in the textbook. Followed by a multiple choice exam of 50 questions. It is a very simple read so there is no reason to feel intimidated.
Confined Water Dives- You learn basic scuba diving skills from the beach in shallow water of up to 15 feet (5 meters). You will complete five confined water dives which will cover everything you need to know as an introductory Open Water Diver. An instructor will explain the objectives behind each skill and give a demonstration both on land and in the water to further assist you in mastering the necessary skills to become certified.
Open Water Dives – Again from the beach, you descend no deeper than 40 feet (18 meters) to demonstrate your mastering of the basic scuba diving skills learned in the confined water section. On the last dive, you have more time to enjoy the reef and to really experience the feeling of being an Open Water diver.
After you complete this course, you will focus your future vacations around diving. Get certified now with Maple Leaf Scuba to make your dreams a reality.
Duration: 3 days.
