Open Water Diver
You can earn the Open Water Diver certification, the most widely-recognised scuba qualification worldwide, in three to four days. With your instructor, you will cover the fundamentals of scuba diving, including dive equipment and techniques. During this diving course you will complete a few confined water sessions and knowledge development sessions, and a minimum of four open water dives in the warm waters of Cyprus..
Optional eLearning is available, which means you can complete the theory part of your diving course before leaving home. Your Open Water certification allows you to dive to 18m maximum depth with a buddy of equal or greater experience, in conditions that are as good as (or better than) those in which you learned to dive. Children aged 10-14 years can earn the Junior Open Water Diver certification. Certified Junior Open Water Divers aged 10-12 years may dive to 12m maximum depth, under the direct supervision of a Divemaster, Assistant Instructor, Instructor or higher professional. For Junior Open Water Divers aged 10-12 years who wish to make guided dives after finishing the course, but do not have a certified parent/guardian, we require you to have a private dive guide (see Daily diving for prices).
