Open Water Junior
Are you over 10 years old? You can now take the giant stride that will allow you to dive and begin exploring the other 70% of the planet. This certification will allow you to dive anywhere in the world.
Once you arrive at our center, after completing the theoretical part of the course from home with PADI e-learning, the fun starts! You'll learn how to set up and check the dive gear, we'll explain the first session, and we'll start from the shore at our local beach. We progress in training and finish your course by diving in a large aquarium called Mar de Las Calmas, our Marine Reserve.
