FAQ
Q: Is it hard to get scuba certified?
Anyone age 10 years and older can learn to dive and explore the underwater world. PADI knowledge development provides the fundamentals you need to confidently advance to your in-water dive training. With PADI eLearning you can read, watch videos, and take quizzes at your own pace before moving on to the next step. During in-water training, an experienced PADI Instructor will help you learn the necessary dive skills to become a safe and competent diver. Find out the benefits of underwater connection with your PADI Open Water Diver certification!
Q: How long does scuba certification last?
Your scuba diving certification is for life! However, diving regularly is highly recommended to maintain your dive skills and knowledge. Try to avoid long periods without diving (6 months or longer). If you haven’t been scuba diving recently, you should take the PADI Reactivate Scuba Refresher.
Q: How long does it take to get certified?
The PADI Open Water Diver course usually takes 3-4 days. You’ll combine 1 day of classroom/online study, and 2 days of both confined water trainings and open-water dives.
