How do I get my PADI or SSI? Is diving easy?

Learning to dive is not difficult. You may be a little nervous at the start, but the step by step structure of the course will take you through basics, then into a shallow pool before letting you loose on the reefs. Most people find out very quickly that diving is one of the most fun activities you can imagine! Here’s how the Open Water Diver course looks. Please note that on the video in the next tab certified divers are alos shown. You will not penetrate a wreck during the course or dive deeper than 18 meters. This thrill comes later :-)))

Phuket Open Water Dives

After your confined water fun, you will make 4 open water dives over the remaining course of 2 days with your Instructor. When we say “open water”, we mean the beautiful blue ocean! You start shallow and gradually go deeper. The maximum depth in the course is 18 meters. Now you can experience real underwater adventure! We make dives on full day boat trips to islands near Phuket.

SSI Training Center – Phuket Open Water Diver Courses

We believe in quality instruction and do not like to run rushed 2 day basic scuba diver courses. We run the OWD course in 3 days with small classes, including 2 days by day trip boat to the islands of Racha Noi and Racha Yai to the south off Phuket. After completing the online theory we can go when the paperwork is completed straight to the pool. You should complete the FREE Digital Learning before the course start. For courses including theory at our dive center it is best if you can come a day before to pick up your Open Water Diver manual. Prepared is the theory better to understand. A 3 day course is easy and fun. Please note that beginner dive courses in the Similan Islands National Park are prohibited. Training dives are taking usually place at the islands of Racha Noi and Racha Yai in the south of Phuket. Sunrise Divers is an authorized SSI Training Center – No. 766623.

You can get started on your Open Water Diver course any time with PADI as well – this can save you holiday time – if you have completed all the theory in advance, you’ll be ready to get straight into the water, no messing around in classrooms on holiday, plus with eLearning you can do the theory in your own time.
