Scuba diving can be enjoyed by almost anyone. We at finnatical just love making more diving finnatics. We relish helping people become confident divers, comfortable in the water and having the time of their life.
The PADI Open Water entry-level certification takes you from beginner to certified diver in just two weeks. You’ll experience a combination of class and pool sessions during the course and we’ll also be heading off to Miracle Waters for 4 Open Water dives.
Once all the dives are done and you have completed the knowledge reviews, quizzes and passed the multiple choice exams, you’re done and qualified as a PADI Open Water scuba diver.
As a PADI Open Water Diver you are certified to go diving independently with any other certified diver down to (recommended) 18 meters, anywhere in the world as long as you have your PADI certification card with you.
