Company description We offer:
Open Water Certification $295
Begin your underwater journey with a PADI Open Water Diver Certification from Scuba Connections. After successfully completing our program, your certification will be accepted anywhere in the world AND YOU`LL FEEL GOOD ABOUT DIVING!
Our certification program consists of four parts: self-study to be completed prior to the start of your classroom activities, classroom instruction, “confined water” or pool instruction and “open water” certification dives.
The typical Scuba Connections program is a 3-week course, meeting 2 evenings the first week for classroom instruction and 4 evening ``Confined Water`` pool sessions over the next two weeks. Following successful completion of the classroom and pool, a weekend at the lake is scheduled consisting of 4 ``Open Water`` dives over two days.
During the winter months, we`d love to certify you on one of our ``blue water`` trips to Cozumel!
Our program cost includes all course materials, use of all SCUBA gear necessary for confined and open water dives, and the use of computers for open water dives.
The student is required to supply their own mask, snorkel, booties and fins. We offer a 10% student / preferred customer discount on all items purchased at Scuba Connections
Contact Scuba Connections to register and pick up your materials. A $100 deposit will hold your spot in class. Classes are “closed” one week prior to the start date. Materials should be picked up by the “close” date so there is ample time to complete the self-study portion of your training.
