Company description We offer Open Water Certification Course (beginning course) monthly. Sometimes twice a month during the warmer months. They start the second monday of each month and they last two weeks. They are three nights a week, a total of six nights. Typically, the nights are Monday, Tuesday & Wednesday nights. (The only exception to this is if one of those nights fall on a holiday). Four nights are pool nights and two nights are classroom nights. The weekend of the second week, we go diving! Once you do all this, you are certified.
You need to read the first three chapters of the book and complete the Knowledge Reviews at the end of each chapter. This needs to be completed before the first Monday of class. Also, watch the DVD/Video sections that corresponds with these chapters.
The last two chapters need to be read and Knowledge Reviews completed before the second Monday of class. Again, watch the DVD/Video sections that corresponds to these chapters. There is also a little supplement book that re-enforces Chapters IV & V. Make sure you read this too. It is very important that the Knowledge Reviews are completed and the DVD/Video is watched before you come to class!
The cost of the course is $225. You will need to provide mask, fins, snorkel and booties. If you purchase these new, plan on spending between 90$ - $250 on all four items. You will need ``Scuba Quality`` equipment. As a student, you will receive a 15% discount off anything in our store.
You will also be responsible for your ``weekend getaway``. If your certification dives are in Florida, you will pay Scuba Madness $129. This will cover hotel room (double occupancy), scuba park entrance fees, air fills and taxes. All that`s left is getting down there and your meals.
The swimming requirement for certification is an easy - 200 yard nonstop swim (with no time or specific stroke requirement) or a 300 yard snorkel with mask, fins and snorkel followed by a 10 minute tread/float.
