PADI Scuba Diver Course — Marsa Alam

The PADI Scuba Diver rating is the answer to a common holiday problem: you want a genuine certification, not just a taster, but don't have three or four days to spare. Over two to three days you cover the first sections of PADI dive theory, master the core confined-water skills (mask clearing, regulator recovery, buoyancy) and complete open-water training dives on Marsa Alam's gentle reefs. The certification qualifies you to dive worldwide to 12 metres under the supervision of a PADI professional — which covers most guided holiday diving. Everything counts forward: whenever you're ready you can upgrade to the full Open Water Diver rating with no repeated work. Minimum age 10; basic swimming ability and normal good health required.
