The best way for those who have no experience and want a taste of what it’s like to explore the underwater world.  The Cost for this all inclusive course is $185 and includes everything but your swimming suit, towel, and lunch.  Included in your day of fun and adventure is a quick DVD and discussion with your instructor, then off to the pool you go where you will practice SCUBA diving.  After a lunch break you will go out on our dive boat where you get a chance to complete two dives on the reefs of the Florida Keys National Marine Sanctuary. 

Open Water Certification: $435
The full PADI Open Water Certification is all inclusive and typically takes three days and costs $435 per person.  All course materials, rental gear and processing fees are included.  Once a reservation is made we will send self-study materials for you to complete prior to arriving.  This will make your holiday much less stressful and allow less time in the classroom. The course includes class time with a 50 question final exam, time in the pool to learn your basic scuba skills and then complete four dives on our beautiful reefs of the Florida Keys National Marine Sanctuary.
