Overview

In our Open Water Course, we give you the necessary tools to instruct you under the direction of the highest expert guides to obtain the OPEN WATER DIVER SSI certificate. This program has been recognized worldwide as the best way for you to begin to enter the underwater world.

We will combine practice sessions in the water with a little reading and videos until we ensure that you have the necessary skills to become a diver who is safe and comfortable underwater. We will divide this certification into a total of 11 hours of training which will be taken in 3 different days. It is important that you have read the material that we will provide you previously, as well as seen the videos to be able to enter the water.

In Los Cabos there are dream spots for diving and the best thing about them is that they are suitable for beginner divers; Pelican Rock and North Wall are the most prominent and their depths do not exceed 12 meters.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    (8)

    Q: How soon can I fly in an airplane after Scuba diving?

    A: Participants in the Los Cabos Open Water Diver Course cannot fly in an airplane within 24 hours of their dive. The main concern with scuba diving and flying is decompression sickness (DCS). Your body needs adequate time during an ascent to off-gas excess nitrogen, or you can form bubbles in your bloodstream, possibly leading to DCS. Read more Jun 2024
