Frequently asked questions

I'm not a great swimmer, is that a problem?

You just need to be comfortable in the water, not an experienced swimmer. Your instructor stays with you at all times.

Do I have to go down to 12 meters if I don't want to?

No. That is the maximum depth allowed for this program, but you will never go deeper than you are comfortable with. You set the pace.

If I enjoy it, can I continue towards a real certification?

Absolutely! If you enroll in the PADI Open Water course within 12 months of your introductory dive, the skills you've already practiced can be credited toward your training.
