Before signing up for a course, make sure you meet all the requirements listed below.
Medical requirements Scuba diving requires a minimum level of health and fitness. To avoid disappointment, access and review the diver's medical form and make sure you don't need a doctor's approval to dive before signing up for a diving course.
Aquaticity requirements In addition to the specific requirements of each course, scuba diving requires that you are able to swim, regardless of your level of technique, and that you are comfortable in the water. It is the candidate's responsibility to ensure that they meet these and other specific requirements before enrolling on the course.
eLearning eLearning should ideally be completed in full before starting the practical component with your instructor. The time taken to complete it varies.
Duration Although the courses have a set duration, they are performance-based. Failure to meet mandatory performance requirements may require extra lessons, which are not included in the initial course fee.
Flying You may only fly after completing your course 12 hours after completing a single open water dive, or 18 hours after completing more than one open water dive.
After your course After completing your course, talk to your instructor about the possibilities for continuing your adventure. The possibilities are varied - local dive trips, education, travel and purchasing equipment. Don't forget that we have six dive centers ready to welcome you.
