Full description
When you arrive at the dive centre, you’ll meet your instructor and get fitted with your scuba gear. Your theory must be completed online before your first day, so you’ll be ready to jump straight into the water. You’ll begin with confined water sessions in a pool, where you’ll learn and practice essential scuba skills in a safe, controlled environment.
Once you’re confident, you’ll move on to four ocean dives across different days. Each dive combines skill practice with time to explore the reef and encounter marine life under the guidance of your instructor. You’ll gain hands-on experience and grow more comfortable underwater with every dive.
The course ends with your final qualifying dive and certification — you’ll officially be a PADI Open Water Diver, ready to explore the underwater world anywhere on the planet.

Reviews
The tour was amazing. Alejandro knew so much about San Jose history. He knew fun facts that will stick in my mind! A very enjoyable evening!
A guia Mariana foi muito simpática e instrutiva. O tour passa pelos principais pontos relevantes do centro de San José. A comida servida no final do tour é o ponto alto. Poderiam cobrar um pouco menos para termos um melhor custo benefício aqui. Mesmo assim vale a pena, pois andar por conta própria no centro de San José pode ser perigoso.
Very informative, my guide was very kind and helpful, she was one of the best guides I’ve ever had. And even thought it was just me and her she made it very memorable in so many ways, food and drinks were amazing 10/10 would do this tour again!
