We offer a range of PADI Scuba Diving courses, from Discover Scuba Diving, through to Divemaster for those wishing to pursue a career in diving. 
 
Below is a brief explanation of each course leading on to in depth reading.

Bubblemaker 
For all the Children that would like to try Scuba diving there is the PADI Bubblemaker program. This is a safe but most importantly, great fun way for kids to have a go. Every child wears their own Scuba set and is supervised closely…… 
 
Discover Scuba 
Thought about having a go at Scuba diving then Discover Scuba is a chance to experience for the first time the pleasures of Scuba Diving in the safety of a pool and then if you wish, with an open water dive in the sea. You will understand immediately why this sport is so addictive! With a basic safety and equipment brief, you will then discover the joys of being weightless underwater, moving freely in 3 dimensions, the peace and beauty and then during the openwater dive, just how friendly the marine environment is and what great friends fish make! Stressed out with work, then meet the ultimate stress buster and this taster will show you why. Gift vouchers are also available, allowing you to give a wonderful present to family or friends…… 
 
Scuba Diver  
This course requires less time than the PADI Open Water Diver course, covering only the first three of five sections of knowledge development, the first three of five pool sessions, and the first two of four open water training dives, resulting in a limited certification. Particularly if you expect to go scuba diving primarily in the company of a dive guide or if you have limited time to devote to scuba certification, consider becoming a PADI Scuba Diver. 
This certification allows for ample dive experience and is a good warm-up for the Open Water Diver course, if that’s your ultimate goal. 
 
Open Water Diver 
This is the first complete PADI SCUBA (Self Contained Underwater Breathing Apparatus) diving course that takes you from total beginner to becoming a certified diver.... 
Padi eLearning Open Water Course

Advanced Open Water  
Having completed the PADI Open Water course, how about becoming an Advanced Open Water Diver and gaining hands on experience in the type of diving that appeals to you! There are 2 required specialities being Deep and Navigation as these allow you to broaden your diving experiences, safe in your knowledge base. Then you chose the next 3 specialities for the areas that interest you. The good news, you are forced to do 5 dives, what a bind!!
