Scuba Diver (SD) Course

For those of you with limited time, the PADI Scuba Diver course introduces you to the basics of Scuba Diving. Participants complete 3 theory modules, 1 day of shallow water skills training and 2 open water dives up to 12 meters , to receive a permanent license that allows you to dive to 12 meters under the supervision of a dive master or instructor. The Scuba Diver certification is valid worldwide and can be upgraded to the PADI Open Water certification at any time. If you have the desire to learn diving but don’t have enough time for it, the Scuba Diver course is a good beginning.
Note – Lacadives recommends that students of diving take the 2-3 extra days to complete the Open Water Course. Our Scuba In The City program now allows you to finish two-thirds of the course material at our Pool Training Facilities in Mumbai and Bangalore so that you can focus on having fun when you get out to our island dive centers.
