About this experience

Looking to earn your diving credentials in paradise? Dive Oahu's PADI Open Water course in Honolulu gets you certified in Hawaii's crystal-clear waters, starting from $479. This world-renowned certification welcomes complete beginners aged 10 and up-no prior experience needed.

You'll have two learning paths to choose from. The Weekly Group Course spreads your training across three evening classroom sessions, then takes you out for weekend ocean dives. Perfect if you prefer a structured schedule with fellow students. Want something more flexible? The Custom Course lets you complete everything over 2-4 days with personalized instruction tailored to your pace.

Your instructors will guide you through essential diving fundamentals-from safety procedures and equipment operation to core underwater techniques. The combination of classroom theory and hands-on ocean training ensures you're confident and prepared for recreational diving anywhere in the world. All scuba gear is included during training sessions, though you'll need your own mask, snorkel, and fins.

Each student gets access to PADI's comprehensive eLearning materials as part of the package. Training sessions meet in Honolulu, making it convenient whether you're visiting or local. Your certification package covers everything: the PADI Open Water Diver certification, instructor-led lessons, eLearning access, and equipment use during training.

A few things to keep in mind: bring swimwear and a towel to each session. Makeup sessions are available for an additional fee if life gets in the way, and eLearning codes can't be refunded once opened. Just remember to cancel 48 hours ahead if plans change. This PADI Open Water course Honolulu opens the door to incredible underwater adventures in one of the planet's top diving destinations.
