Complete your PADI Open Water certification with our PADI Open Water Checkout or Referral Dives at Gold Coast Scuba. If you've already started your confined water training with another dive shop, our course options allow you to finish your certification by completing the required open water dives in the stunning waters of South Florida.

The complete PADI Open Water Course includes e-learning, confined pool training, and four open water dives, typically completed over 2-3 days. These dives are designed to help you practice and perfect your diving skills under the guidance of our experienced instructors. Each dive builds your confidence and comfort underwater, meeting essential skill requirements. Some skills are specific to certain dives, while others can be completed at any time during your underwater experience. Additionally, certain skills require a deeper boat dive, while others do not.

We offer packages tailored to your specific needs, including all necessary scuba equipment, dive trips, and instructor fees, ensuring a seamless and enjoyable experience.

To maximize your time with us, please ensure all e-learning modules and medical waivers are completed before your arrival, as failure to do so may prevent you from participating in the dives.

And remember—tipping your guide is always appreciated!
