Scuba Diving, also known as scuba diving, is one of the most fascinating forms of exploring the underwater world. It is an activity that allows you to plunge into the depths of the seas and oceans, explore diverse ecosystems and observe marine life up close. Scuba Diving offers the opportunity not only to see natural phenomena inaccessible from the surface of the water, but also to experience the unique sense of weightlessness that accompanies diving.
Basic Scuba Diving Courses
To begin your Scuba Diving adventure, it is necessary to complete a course that will introduce the future diver to the basics of theory, technique and safety underwater. These courses vary in their level of sophistication and the range of credentials they offer. Here are some of the basic scuba diving courses available at Deepspot:
- First time diving with a cylinder – This course is ideal for those who have never dived before. Participants start with a theoretical class, learning the basics of diving, and then move on to practice in controlled pool conditions. This course allows you to make your first dive with diving equipment, to a depth of up to 12 meters, under the guidance of an experienced instructor. This is a great opportunity to feel what it’s like to breathe underwater and enjoy the underwater world.
- Deepspot Scuba Diver course – is a more advanced course that prepares participants to dive in open water to a depth of 12 meters. The course includes learning theory, shallow depth diving techniques and basic safety rules. Participants gain the skills necessary to dive safely in the company of an instructor or another certified diver. Upon completion of the course, they receive a Scuba Diver certificate, which is internationally recognized.
- Indoor Diving Course – is a course designed for people who want to dive independently at greater depths, up to 18 meters. It offers full training for diving in confined waters (such as the Deepspot pool), with an emphasis on advanced diving techniques, dive planning and equipment management. The course concludes with a certificate that entitles the student to further, more advanced diving courses, such as PADI Open Water Diver (OWD). Participants gain not only theoretical knowledge, but also practical experience, which is crucial for safe diving at greater depths.
Each course is taught by experienced instructors who provide support and safety at every stage of learning. Dive equipment, including aqualung, balas and mask with snorkel, is provided by Deepspot, allowing participants to focus on learning and enjoying diving.
What is the PADI organization?
PADI (Professional Association of Diving Instructors) is one of the largest and most recognized diving organizations in the world. PADI certifications are recognized globally and are a guarantee of high standards of training and safety. The organization offers a variety of diving courses, from basic to advanced, including specialized technical and rescue courses. Among the most popular courses is the PADI Open Water Diver (PADI OWD). PADI courses are designed to be accessible to a wide range of people, regardless of their previous diving experience.
How does the PADI OWD (Open Water Diver) diving course work, what is its duration and what does it entitle you to?
The PADI Open Water Diver (OWD) course is the most popular diving course in the world. It consists of three main parts: theory classes, pool practice and open water diving. The course usually lasts several days, during which participants learn the basics of diving theory, scuba techniques, safety procedures and communication underwater. The course ends with a certificate, which entitles the participant to dive independently to depths of up to 18 meters.
For those who have completed the Deepspot Scuba 18m course, it is possible to continue learning and gaining additional skills on the Upgrade to Open Water Diver + Certificate course, which includes open water dives under the supervision of an instructor.
PADI OWD certificate entitles you to dive independently in open water and experience the magic of the underwater world
Having a PADI OWD certification opens the door to the fascinating world of underwater exploration. With it, a diver has the opportunity to explore underwater landscapes on his or her own, discover coral reefs, shipwrecks and encounter a variety of marine life. This extraordinary experience allows you to experience the beauty and tranquility of the underwater world, which are available only to a few.
PADI Scuba Diver course also allows you to enjoy pool diving more fully
Even if you don’t plan to dive in open water anytime soon, the PADI Scuba Diver course gives you the opportunity to enjoy diving in the pool.
