[ Recreational Diver Certifications ]

Recreational Diver Levels
• Skin Diver
Gain expertise and experience with your Mask, Snorkel and Fins. In this course you will learn important concepts of equalization, clearing techniques, ascents and descents and other important skills for the free diver.

• Resort Diver
Experience what Scuba is like with this mini-class. A professional instructor will work with resort divers in extremely small personalized groups. A brief class room, then into the pool to learn the basics. After you are comfortable with the standard skills, the instructor will be able to take you into an open water environment to shallow depths. While not a certification in the standard sense, this is an excellent way to experience what scuba has to offer.

• Open Water Diver / Jr. Open Water Diver
To become a fully qualified diver, you start with classroom work to gain the knowledge necessary to dive safely. This knowledge is then applied in confined water (pool or equivalent) where your basic diving skills are taught and perfected. Then the real fun begins when you go for 4 actual dives in your local diving environment. Jr. Open Water classes are for divers between the ages of 12 and 15 and includes the same knowledge and experience as Open Water classes.

• Advanced Open Water Diver
This is the natural progression after you become an Open Water Diver. In an Advanced class, you will gain experience in Night Diving, Deep Diving, Underwater Navigation, as well as two other diving specialties. This is an excellent way to further your experience and knowledge, or as a brush up for the "rusty" diver.

• Specialty Diver
In a specialty course you will study the topic of your choice in a more in depth course. Perhaps your interests lie in Underwater Photography, Night Diving, Wreck Diving, Deep Diving, or Multi-Level Diving. Pick your favorite topic - there is probably a specialty course that will fit your needs!

• Rescue Diver
Become the best buddy you can be with a Rescue Class. Learn the skills necessary to help yourself and others in emergency situations. The confidence you gain in this class will follow you through the rest of your diving experiences.

• Advanced Rescue Diver
Expanding on the Rescue Course, this program includes the student gaining CPR and First Aid training as well as taking an Oxygen Provider class. An excellent program for divers who want to be prepared for any situation, or who are heading toward becoming a professional in the diving industry.
