PADI Open Water Referral

The price of this course depends on how much has to be done.  For example the four OW dives cost $220.00, but if you require fewer dives then the price will be lower.

You can complete your course between multiple dive shops, which is great for those who want to start at home and finish here in the Caribbean!

If you did your Academic and/or Confined Water part of the Open Water Course in your hometown, you can finish your Open Water dives with us in the crystal clear Caribbean waters of Roatan!

If you started your training with an organization other than PADI, we require an additional pool dive ($30) to assess your dive skills and a review of your diving knowledge.  After this you will continue on with your PADI training and you will be certified as a PADI Open Water Diver at the end of your course.
