Equipment

In the PADI Open Water Diver course, you learn to use basic SCUBA gear, including a mask, snorkel, fins, regulator, buoyancy control device and a tank. The equipment you wear varies, depending upon whether you’re diving in tropical, temperate or cold water. Check with us about the gear you will be using during this course and get advice about everything you need from our PADI Instructors.
