In general, an Open Water Diver course consists of 3 parts: Academics, Pool Training and Open Water Sessions. With personalized training and taking enough time, we make sure you are truly comfortable under water with the skills and equipment you will use. All of our open water dives are conducted in Pennekamp State Park from the dive boat. In addition to that you will learn about compass handling both at the surface and underwater. During the 3 remaining dives you will apply the skills you have already mastered in the swimming pool to open water conditions, combined with a guided tour to explore Key Largo’s reefs. The first dive does not include any formal skills and will help you to get used to the new environment. We will also check if you are able to swim and feel comfortable in the water.ĭuring your course you will participate in 4 open water training dives.
