Learning to dive is not difficult, but like any activity worth doing, it requires some time and effort. While taking the Open Water Diver course with Phuket dash Scuba dot Com, you'll enjoy three phases: Knowledge Development, Confined Water Dives and Open Water Dives.
1. Knowledge Development This develops your familiarity with basic principles and procedures. You learn things like how pressure affects your body, how to choose the best gear and what to consider when planning dives. This is done online by independent study, of course your instructor is there to help you. At the end of the course, you take an exam that makes sure you've got all the key concepts and ideas down.
2. Confined Water Dives This is what it's all about - diving. You develop basic scuba skills in a pool. Here you'll learn everything from setting up your gear to how to easily get water out of your mask without surfacing. You'll also practice some emergency skills, like sharing air - just in case. Plus, you may play some games, make new friends and have a great time.
There are five confined water dives, with each building upon the previous. Over the course of these five dives, you attain the skills you need to dive in open water.
For the confined water dives we use a swimming pool here in Kata Phuket that was specifically build to conduct scuba diving lessons.
3. Open Water Dives After your confined water dives, you and the new friends you've made continue learning during four open water dives with your Instructor at one of our Phuket divesites. This is where you have fun putting it all together and fully experience the underwater adventure. The divesites will be our housereef here at Kata Beach, Racha Yai or Racha Noi. During the open water course with us you'll be making 5 dives, so you get one bonusdive.
