There are two easy ways to complete your Open Water Certification - our referral course or by completing the full course with us at the Underwater Connection.
PADI Open Water Referral Course
$450
Get your underwater journey started with Underwater Connection. This is the main option you are signing up for above.
What is a "Referral Course"? This is the most popular choice for our traveling divers during our winter season. This option allows you to do the e-Learning and pool training with us. When you have successfully completed the weekend program along with the written exams, you will be issued Referral forms which document your completion of these sections of the course. You can then take these documents to any PADI Instructor worldwide to complete your open water training dives.
Includes:
This course includes e-Learning course, pool dives, logbook, use of scuba rental equipment (including a Dive Computer) for pool dives only, and all necessary referral documents including certification fees.
*Students are required to have their own mask, snorkel and fins ( as well as boots if necessary).
