TRAINING AT PORT PELEGRÍ

Complete the pathway rather than start again

This is for divers who already hold Scuba Diver, not for complete beginners. The centre reviews your existing training and arranges the remaining knowledge and practical requirements.

The standard adult Open Water qualification allows buddy diving within its limits to 18 metres. Junior depth and supervision limits depend on age.

LEARN AND PRACTISE

What you will work on

  1. Review your starting point

    Complete the remaining dive skills and two boat dives with your instructor.

Check dates, preparation and the services in your chosen option on the booking page. Certification, where applicable, requires successful completion of the course requirements.

PLAN YOUR COURSE

Before you get in the water

Can I book without Scuba Diver?

This upgrade is for existing Scuba Diver holders. If you have no qualification, choose the full Open Water course.

Is everything completed in one day?

The product lists one practical day. Remaining online study must be completed beforehand and the centre must confirm your readiness.

Does every junior qualify to dive to 18 metres?

No. Junior limits depend on age. Ask Poseidon to confirm the scope of the qualification for each participant.

Is instruction available in English?

Please confirm the instructor’s language and learning materials for your dates before travelling. A translated website does not guarantee a class in that language.
