PADI OPEN WATER COURSE
Private Scuba Diving Courses
If you are in Phuket and wish to discover the wonders of the underwater world in a great way, there is nothing better than the PADI Open Water Course by Luna Diving Phuket. The perfect solution for those who want to have a great time on holiday.
While most commercial operations promote a rushed 3-day course, usually to reduce costs, we at Luna Diving believe a proper Open Water Course should take at least 4 days. This way we will be able to dedicate the necessary time to training you into a safe and confident diver, which also means a lot more fun when you explore the underwater world!
We can conduct the knowledge development and pool training sessions at our facilities in Phuket. After the swimming pool session you can enjoy 6 open water dives in a nice a comfortable boat.
All our Luna Diving Phuket Courses are PRIVATE just for you and your family/group, you will not be sharing your instructor with other random students/divers.
