PART 1 of 3 – Theory (Up to 10 Hours)

PADI’s Open Water Diver eLearning software enables you to see, hear and interact with the course content including graphics, photos, pop-up sidebars, quizzes and video clips.

PART 2 of 3 – Theory Revision and Shallow Water Skills (1 day on Rawa Island or a weekend in Singapore)

Our OrcaNation dive professional will guide you through any questions you may have from your eLearning training and perform a theory review of important concepts. During the shallow water training, you are gradually building on the basic concepts and skills you need to be safe underwater, which you will then repeat on the slightly deeper open water ocean dives.

PART 3 of 3 – Open Water Dives (2 full days on Raw Island)

Once parts 1 & 2 of the course are complete, it is time to experience the ocean. Here you will practice and utilize the skills you have learned over 4 open water dives with your OrcaNation dive professional. It takes 2 days to complete the open water dives on Rawa Island, after which you have completed the PADI Open Water certification, which is recognized worldwide.
