SCUBA DIVING IS GREAT FUN AND IS A FANTASTIC WAY TO DISCOVER THE DIVERSITY OF THE AMAZING UNDERWATER WORLD. THE PADI OPEN WATER DIVE COURSE ENABLES YOU TO ENJOY THE DIVING ENVIRONMENT AS A TRAINED AND SAFE DIVER.

Did you start your PADI Open Water Course elsewhere and want to finish it with Auckland Scuba? No Problem! This Open Water Referral course will take you through your open water dives. After completing the course, we will be able to certify you if we are provided with the correct referral paperwork from your previous dive centre/resort, as well as your certification code (PIC).

Prerequisites:

Minimum 15 years of age
Answer "NO" to all questions on the Medical Form (please contact us if you have any issues or queries with the dive medical)

What do I need?

Snorkelling gear (mask, snorkel, fins). Don't worry if you don't have this yet as you can hire it for $100, but for comfort we recommend you supply your own. Speak to us first before purchasing to be sure the equipment is appropriate.

Course cost 

Cost includes all scuba equipment and 4 open water dives. If you do not have a certification code, there will be an additional cost for this.

Why should I dive with Auckland Scuba?

• We want you to enjoy your diving experience so you’ll come to love diving as we do.
• Our instructors are passionate about diving and will ensure that your first underwater experience will be a fun and safe experience.
• We have regular dive trips throughout the year from our own boat (not charters). We believe that once you've learnt to dive, you'll want to carry on so why not learn with a centre that actually gets out diving?!
• We have the best price guarantee. If you find a better price for the same equipment, we'll match it.
• We offer our students extra sessions if required so that you are comfortable before going out into the ocean (additional fees may apply).
• We have a high standard of well-maintained equipment in our school including computers.
