Open Water Scuba Diver

It’s a world of striking beauty, with strange and colorful creatures in a weightless seascape.  An unfamiliar place where every visit is an adventure and discovery!

Divers are members of a special community, where they can meet new people and share the knowledge they gain.  Scuba will reveal new sites and new experiences, an up-close and personal encounter with marine life.

Just imagine where you will go! Begin your underwater explorations by enrolling in a NAUI Scuba Diver class. This is our entry-level certification course where you will learn the fundamental knowledge and skills to safety dive in open water.

Earning your NAUI Scuba Diver Certification card is an accomplishment for which you will rightfully feel proud and you will be ready to begin a lifetime of underwater adventures and discovering.

During your NAUI Scuba Diver class, you will learn about modern dive equipment, diving sciences, responsible diving practices and the environment. Diving skills will be taught and practiced first in the comfort and convenience of a confined water environment and finally during your open water training dives with your NAUI Instructor.
