The course takes 5 days and includes theory lessons and 10 open-water dives.
You don’t need to be an athlete, but you should be in general good health. If you have any medical conditions, check with a doctor before diving.
Not at all! The Open Water Diver course is designed for beginners and taught at a comfortable pace to help you gain confidence and master the essential skills step by step. Unlike most dive centers that rush the course in just a few days, we take a full 5 days to ensure you have plenty of time to truly practice and perfect your skills. This means less stress, more hands-on experience, and a smoother learning process—so you’ll feel completely comfortable underwater by the time you get certified! Another big advantage is that our course is conducted entirely in open water, rather than in a pool. This allows you to get real diving experience from day one, preparing you for actual dive conditions right away. Plus, you won’t just be practicing—you’ll be diving on beautiful coral reefs, surrounded by colorful fish and marine life! This way, you’ll be learning while enjoying the magic of the Red Sea, making your training both effective and fun. Our patient and experienced instructors will guide you through theory lessons, shallow-water training, and 10 open-water dives, giving you more real diving experience than most standard courses. If you ever feel unsure, we’re here to support and encourage you at every step. By the end of the course, you’ll be a confident and capable diver, ready to explore the underwater world with ease!
Certain conditions like asthma, epilepsy, severe heart or lung issues, and pregnancy may prevent you from diving. If in doubt, consult a doctor.
