PADI® Open Water Diver is the first scuba certification level. A highly-trained PADI Instructor will teach you how to scuba dive in a relaxed, supportive learning environment.

By the end of the course, you'll have the skills and knowledge to dive at home or abroad and be an ambassador for the underwater world.

With Your Instructor

Practice using scuba gear in a pool (or pool-like environment) until you're comfortable.

PADI training includes practice "mini dives" to help you build confidence in your new abilities before making four dives in open water.
