Dive Training

OPEN WATER DIVER –

  • $970 (e-learner, confined, 4 open water dives)
  • $775 (confined and 4 open water dives)
  • $475 (4 open water dives)

Ready to join the club?!? There’s no better time than now. Take this course and return home a certified open water scuba diver! If you are traveling to Kauai for vacation we highly recommend doing your e learner work before you come here. That way you have more time to enjoy your vacation and not worry about passing exams! Once you book we will email you a link to your e-learner course.

Once you pass your course all you have to do is a confined water session and 4 open water dives.

The confined session is where you learn the skills needed to scuba dive. We take you in to shallow water and practice skills until you have completed them all and we feel that you are ready for the open water.

Once you have completed your confined session we need to do 4 dives in the ocean. While we dive, we will have you complete skills you learned in confined in deeper water. This whole process takes two days. Usually we do confined and 2 open water dives one day and 2 open water dives another day. We recommend doing this at the beginning of your vacation just in case we need more time to certify you.

On the first day of the course we meet at Koloa Landing at 7:30. It usually takes 45 minutes to 2 hours to finished the confined session. After that we do 2 open water dives. The day is usually done by 2 o’clock. The second day is just 2 open water dives. We meet at 7:30 and are normally done by noon.
