PADI Open Water Diver (OWD)
The entry-level dive course
With the classic entry-level dive course you become a certified diver, able to dive with your buddy anywhere in the world down to 18m and to rent equipment.
The theory lessons of the course are studied independently beforehand. The most important points of the theoretical part are then reviewed with us in the Diving Dragonera classroom. The training is combined with the Confined Water lessons, which take place in a sheltered bay nearby. The open water training for the PADI Open Water Diver course (4 open water dives) is then carried out on our dive boat „Barracuda“.

You don't just take your diving skills to a new level, but also learn to take responsibility, lead groups and safely accompany other divers.
The course combines theory, practical skills and real experiences in everyday diving. Step by step you grow into the role of a leader and become an important support for dive students and instructors. You learn to recognise problems, act confidently and keep an overview even in challenging situations.
Whether you later want to work professionally at a dive base or on a dive boat, or simply want to grow personally — the Divemaster course will take you enormously further as a diver and a person. For us this training is one of the most important steps in diving, which is why we accompany our Divemaster candidates intensively, individually and with full passion.
