PADI Dive Training

As a PADI Diver, you will be carrying one of the most recognised scuba certification cards

PADI Open Water

The fun part about this course is . . . well, just about all of it because learning to dive is incredible.

You breathe underwater for the first time (something you’ll never forget) and learn what you need to know to become a certified diver.

During the course, you’ll make at least three pool dives and four dives at local dive sites. We can tailor the time you spend on this course to where and when it is convenient for you.

You can also choose where and when to complete this first jump into the underwater world!

PADI Adventure Diver and Advanced Open Water

Adventure dives are available any time and any where.

Adventure dives help you get more out of diving by introducing you to new types of scuba diving adventures. It’s a great opportunity to build your scuba diving skills and gain more confidence.

Have you always wanted to try underwater photography?

How about wreck diving?

Or have you felt the cold and would like to try diving in a dry suit?

You can sample any number of dives of your choice, get a taste of what you like, and feel more at ease in the water, strengthening your underwater skills and letting you enjoy scuba diving more than ever.

If you’ve completed five total adventure dives that include deep and navigation, you’re an PADI Advanced Open Water Diver.

If you have found an Adventure dive that you really enjoyed or would like to know more about, then we can talk about completing the PADI Specialty rating for that particular interest.

I am very pleased to be able to offer the following PADI Specialty courses;

Peak Performance Buoyancy (highly recommended)

Enriched Air Nitrox

Deep Diver

Digital Underwater Photography (a personal favourite of mine)

Underwater Naturalist

Wreck Diver

Boat Dive

PADI Rescue Diver

Completing the Rescue Diver course should be on everyones to do list and I am prepared to stick by that statement. Not only is the Rescue Diver course a lot of fun, it is an important and crucial step in expanding a divers knowledge and experience beyond a recreational level.

The course enables you to plan ahead and identify potential problems before an incident occurs.

Kiwi divers are independant and often dive in remote locations. Wouldn’t it be great if both you and your buddy knew what to do if something went wrong?

This course has 3 major components -

Knowledge Development – How to recognise & deal with different situations

Training Exercises – Practice your skills & learn the techniques that work for you

Rescue Scenarios – Challenge you with realistic emergency situations
