Activity description

For underwater lovers, these courses will take your skills and knowledge to the next level. The Open Water and Advanced Open Water will make you a certified diver, able to get to depths of 18 meters and 30 meters respectively. These PADI (Professional Association of Diving Instructors) courses are specifically designed for beginners with no experience or little experience with diving. You will enjoy learning everything about the gears and how to use the equipment... but most of all you will enjoy going underwater to extreme depths to see the marine life, the colourful reefs, the shipwrecks and many hidden places below the surface. 

Omega Divers instructors are very experienced and friendly, ready to answer any type of queries you may have before going underwater. The classes are small-sized - no more than 4 people- in order to retain the quality of the lesson and to provide adequately everything you need to know. After the class, you will be a certified diver, globally recognised. The most important thing before taking a class is to know your instructors as they will be your tutors for 4 of 5 days... All the instructors of Omega Divers are passionate about scuba diving, and they will be next to you in every single dive to give you all the necessary help you may need.
