Open Water Diver Course in Lanzarote
Take the first step towards becoming a certified diver and discover a whole new world beneath the surface.
Your First Step to Becoming a Certified Diver
The Open Water Diver course gives you the knowledge and skills you need to start diving safely and confidently. Step by step, you’ll combine theoretical knowledge with practical training in the water and gain valuable experience during your first dives in the ocean.
Learn to Dive from Scratch
No previous diving experience is required. During the course, you’ll learn how your scuba equipment works, practise the essential diving skills and discover how to move safely and comfortably underwater. Your instructor will guide you through every step of the process.
Build Confidence Underwater
During your practical training, you’ll develop essential skills such as buoyancy control, equalisation, controlled ascents and descents and underwater communication. With every dive, you’ll become more comfortable with your equipment and more confident underwater.
Earn Your First Diving Certification
After successfully completing the course, you’ll receive your Open Water Diver certification. You’ll then be qualified to dive worldwide within the limits of your certification. It also provides the foundation for continuing your diving education with advanced courses and specialties.
What’s Included in the Open Water Diver Course
The Open Water Diver course combines theoretical knowledge with extensive practical training. From learning how to use your equipment correctly to completing your first dives in the ocean, you’ll develop the skills you need to start your diving journey safely and confidently.
Learn About Your Equipment and the Fundamentals of Diving
You’ll learn how to prepare, assemble and correctly use your scuba equipment. You’ll also cover the basic principles of diving physics and physiology, dive planning, air management and important safety procedures.
Master the Essential Diving Skills
You’ll practise fundamental techniques such as equalisation, neutral buoyancy, controlled ascents and descents, regulator recovery and the most important hand signals used for underwater communication.
Complete Your First Open-Water Dives
Now it’s time to put everything you’ve learned into practice in a real diving environment. During your training dives in the ocean, your instructor will guide you as you develop and consolidate your skills step by step. The aim isn’t simply to complete a list of exercises. We want you to become comfortable and confident underwater – and, of course, enjoy your first real dives at the same time.
Complete Your Training and Become a Certified Diver
Once you have demonstrated the required knowledge and practical skills, you’ll complete your Open Water Diver training and receive your certification.
