Scuba Dive Course – Core Courses

set yourself up for a lifetime of underwater adventures!

When looking to do a Scuba Dive Course – Core Courses, your PADI Open Water Diver course is all you need to scuba dive on your own with another certified PADI Open Water Diver and above.  Divers always dive to the least certified divers abilities so that no diver exceeds their certification limits.

PADI Open Water Diver Course

The Course “PADI Open Water Diver” however covers skills for diving to 18m and is mostly focusing on responding to any personal issues while diving and safe diving procedures in reasonably ideal conditions.

PADI Advanced Open Water Course

The Scuba Dive Course “PADI Advanced Open Water” covers more dive management skills and introductions to a variety of skills that are applicable in more interesting diving situations. Things like buoyancy control, deep diving to 30m, navigating, night diving or marine life identification.

PADI Rescue Diver Course

The Dive Course “PADI Rescue Diver” covers real life possibilities for assisting other divers.  These exercises and scenarios give a greater awareness of what problems can happen and how to deal with them should the situation arise.

We call these three courses the “CORE COURSES” because they cover the core aspects of Scuba Diving independently in great detail.

Other Dive Courses

Similar to Advanced Open Water, most other dive courses explore specific area’s of diving, in example; Wreck Penetration Diving.  There are also Divemaster, Instructor and Technical Diving courses.  A lot of these require core course training as a prerequisite.
