Enroll now on the PADI Open Water Course
Divecor will take you through step by step so you feel comfortable and confident to step into the underwater world.
Our process is:
Theory – There will be 5 academic eLearning sessions where your instructor will be on hand to help walk you through the knowledge reviews. There are little quizzes before moving onto the next chapter.
Pool – You will complete 5 pool sessions where you will practice what you have learned during the theory sessions. We’ll outline the necessary safety guidelines and teach you the skills needed to dive. During the 5 confined pool sessions it will give you an insight into the underwater world, with that gravity free feeling scuba diving can give you.
Open Water – To complete the course there are 4 open water dives that can be done over a minimum of two days. During the dives you will complete skills that you have learned during the theory and confined pool sessions. Divecor use local sites to Newcastle Upon Tyne, Northumberland and further afield like the west Coast of Scotland when possible, but can complete open water courses at inland sites if speed and the sea conditions are not favourable. Currently we will use Ellerton Lake in north Yorkshire or Capenwray Quarry in the South Lakes.
So we will teach you to:
Go through the equipment and how it will make it easy for you to move underwater.
What it feels like to breathe underwater.
Have fun swimming around and exploring.
Divecor will help plan you future diving requirements and how to become a certified diver.
