PADI Scuba Diver certification

The PADI Scuba Diver certification is a pre-entry level certification program where a diver completes a portion of the PADI Open Water Diver course in order to become familiar with the basics of scuba diving. PADI Scuba Diver certification qualifies you to:

• Dive under the in-water supervision of a PADI Divemaster, within the limits of your training and experience
• Procure air fills and scuba equipment for supervised diving

This program allows you to scuba dive, but you must be supervised underwater by a qualified professional. The minimum age for this program is 15.
