Virtually anyone who is in good health, reasonably fit and comfortable in the water can earn a PADI Open Water Diver certification. If you are between 10 and 14, or have a child between these ages, there is a PADI Junior Open Water Diver program also available.

Throughout PADI’s Caribbean dive courses, you’ll learn the fundamentals of scuba diving, including the academics, techniques and how to use basic scuba gear. You’ll earn this rating by completing pool dives, knowledge development sessions and four open water (ocean) training dives.
