SSI open water course
Get your Open Water Diver course certification in 3 days at Khao Lak. Starting every Tuesday and Friday. This course is offering E-Learning. This means that the theory part can be completed online, and will minimize your time in the classroom allowing more time to concentrate on the practical part of diving! All you need is a computer, tablet or smartphone and internet access. Full HD Videos, modern graphics, animations, and great pictures make home studying much more fun, as you are the one who decides when to study which module.
Study at home before you start the course
Each step will be documented, and we will receive a notification of your progress. You are only going to spend a short time in the classroom here in Khao Lak, to discuss the course with your instructor, possibly answer some further questions and write a final exam.
[showhide type=”post” more_text=”Read more…” less_text=”Show less…”]On this 3 days open water course you learn how to scuba dive, discover new adventures or simply see the beautiful underwater world with 4 dives at the TOR 13, an old patrol boat, sunk in 2014 to act as a reef.
SSI Open Water Course:
Throughout the course, you’ll learn fundamentals of scuba diving, including dive equipment and techniques. You earn this rating by completing five pool dives and knowledge development sessions and by making four open water dives to a maximum depth of 18 meters.
This Open Water course programs are performance based. You proceed as you demonstrate mastery of the course skills. This allows you to work at a pace that is comfortable for you.
