Some commonly asked questions...

Do I need to buy anything else ?

No, everything that you need to complete the course is included in the price. We will loan you all the equipment, your manuals and dive tables are yours to keep. We have found that most people do tend to treat themselves to a mask, snorkel, fins and boots during the course. We do suggest you wait until after your pool class if you so desire to purchase equipment. It is during this time you find out what proper fitting equipment feels like.

How many people will be in my class ?

It depends on your choice of course, however our Open water classes have maximum of 6 students in the class. We like to keep our student numbers low so as you get the best benefit from your course.

Do many women learn to dive ?

Yes ! About 48% of our students are women and the figure is growing all the time! Woman usually have the best time when they dive with us.

What is the minimum age ?

In Queensland the minimum age to take part in the Open Water programme is 12.

Do I have to be a strong swimmer ?

No. Swimming is just a small part of diving. We look for you to be calm and confidant in the water, not to have great physical prowess. We teach you to dive using your brain not your back. The equipment is there to make it easier!

When does the next course start ?

Our courses start when you are ready. Due to most people working week days, the majority of courses start on weekends, however we do run mid week courses. Once you have signed in for a course you will be given the course material and left to study at your pace !

Do i have to pay for the course up front ?

NO. All we ask is for a deposit first and the balance is payable during or at the end of your course. However we do not certify anyone until all payments have been made.
