PADI Open Water Diver Course

This is your ticket to a lifetime of intense adventure with PADI, a dive company that sets the standards in the global diving community.

P.A.D.I. Professional Association of Diving Instructors are always evolving in the diving industry providing up-to-date diving practices and materials to help further develop individual diving skills, environmental awareness and diver safety.

The new Revised P.A.D.I. Open Water Course focuses on beginner divers learning the importance of a buddy system, gas consumption, equipment knowledge and environmental awareness. The P.A.D.I. program is designed to enable flexibility based on individual learning and also the time you may have to spend on your holidays to complete the course.

On all of our programs we provide small groups with a maximum of four (4) students to instructor and all materials can be provided to you in the preferred language.

To save classroom time we can send to you in advance the P.A.D.I video and materials so that you can begin the training prior to arrival on the island, and save classroom time. Although we can still arrange to conduct the full program in class if you arrive and haven't had the chance to complete the theory or videos before coming to Koh Tao.

Accommodation options include Dormitory Rooms, Standard Bungalows and Rooms, Triple Rooms &  Deluxe Bungalows to suit your budget. Reduced rates on these room options are for the 3 days duration of the course.  We can help tailor your course based on your schedule and provide packages on accommodation based on your room choice.
