WHAT, WHEN & WHERE:
The PADI Open water scuba diver course is the entry level course for anyone who wants to dive up to a depth of 18 metres anywhere in the world, without having to be accompanied by a dive professional.

This course takes place at pools in the Wiltshire and Bath areas. Primarily, the pool and theory sessions will take place at our partners 5* facilities nr Bath. If you have access to a pool, the course can be held there. The sessions are held on various days and different times. The course generally lasts 2 to 6 weeks.

For the open water training dives (4 dives) , we either go to the south coast, or one of the inland dive sites, which could be at Vobster Quay nr Frome in Somerset. These dives generally take place over either a weekend or possibly two. Midweek dives can also be arranged very easily.
