Your underwater adventure can begin as soon as today with our E-learning system… so you can learn even before you arrive to Taveuni.

The fun part about this course is that learning to dive is incredible. You breathe underwater for the first time (something you’ll never forget) and learn what you need to know to become a certified diver. During the course, you’ll make at least five pool dives and four open water dives at our local dive sites under the supervision of  our PADI Instructor and you will discover why Taveuni is simply the GEM of Scuba divers worldwide.

Virtually anyone who is in good health, reasonably fit and comfortable in the water can earn a PADI open water diver certification. During your course, our PADI Instructor will ask you to demonstrate the ability to swim 200 meters/yards without swim aids or 300 meters/yards with mask, fins and snorkel and complete paperwork, to get you on your way to scuba. If you are between 10 and 14 or have a child between these ages, there’s a PADI junior open water diver program available.

With a PADI Diver certification you have the freedom to dive wherever and whenever you choose

Knowledge development establishes the principles and basic information that all divers need to have fun diving safely. It’s divided into 5 bite sized segments that you’ll complete primarily on your own time or in the classroom alone by using the PADI Open Water manual and video to guide you. For each segment your instructor reviews and elaborates on the material, applying what you’re learning to your specific needs and the local dive environment. A short quiz at the end of each section in the manual confirms that you have picked up the information that you need from that section.

So what are you waiting for… ? Contact us now and book your scuba diving holiday in Taveuni… simply the best underwater time of your life!
