| Learn to dive today. If you
want to learn to scuba dive, the first step is to do
an Open Water Diver course. Within a few days, you can
be enjoying the underwater world. And what could be
simpler than learning right in the centre of Auckland!
We run open water dive courses in central Auckland
most weeks. Courses are run in small groups
over two weeks, giving plenty of time for you to become
comfortable with diving concepts and to master the necessary
skills as an open water diver.
There are two course options to choose from:
Option 1 – PADI Open Water course
Training is conducted over a series of classroom and
pool sessions, followed by your open-water dives.
Your course includes four open water dives. It is important
that as part of your training you get to dive in a number
of different situations, as once you are certified there
are many options as to where you can dive. Because of
this we conduct two of your open water dives in fresh
water (in a local lake) and two in salt water (at a
local marine reserve).
The price of this course is $449.
All of your scuba equipment is supplied, but you will
need to supply your own snorkelling equipment (mask,
snorkel and fins). If you decide to buy a mask/snorkel/fin/boot
set from us we will give you 15% discount off your purchase,
or you can hire them for the duration of your course
for $50!
On completion of your course you will graduate with
an internationally recognised PADI Open Water Diver
qualification that will enable you to dive the world
over.
 If
you're busy, or just prefer to study at your own pace,
it is now also possible to do the theory part of your
open water course online, and join us for the pool and
open water dives. For

Option 2 – Private PADI Open Water course
If you would prefer to do a private course with your
own instructor we can put together a customised training
programme to suit your availability.
- Fully private course – private instruction
with your open water dives conducted in a local lake
(2) and at a local marine reserve (2) – NZ$1,299
for 1 person, NZ$699 each for 2-3 people, or NZ$549
each for 4 or more people. If you prefer we can also
run this course off your own boat.
- A part private/part group course – private
instruction for your theory and pool sessions and
then group instruction for your open water dives.
Note that in order to do this option the timing of
your open water dives must coincide with our normal
dive course schedule – NZ$649 for 1-3 people,
or NZ$499 for 4 or more people
On completion of your course you will graduate with
an internationally recognised PADI Open Water Diver
qualification that will enable you to dive the world
over.
The only other additional item is a dive medical (see
below) which will cost you the price of a doctor’s
visit.
