Prepare yourself to be astounded by the feeling of weightlessness and the total freedom that comes with scuba diving!
Goal of the course
During this course you will learn all about the principles of scuba diving and acquire basic skills, both in theory and in practice. During your open water dives, you will have the added bonus of being able to explore the submarine world of Malta's best diving sites. At the end of the course, you will be allowed to dive to a maximum depth of 12m, under the supervision of a PADI certified instructor. You will also be able to rent or purchase scuba diving equipment, get air fills, and take part in supervised diving excursions. Moreover, if you choose to get the PADI Open Water certification at a later point in time, you will only need to complete the parts of the course that weren't already covered in your PADI Scuba Diver course.
