Learn to Dive Course - 4 Days - Port Douglas - Blue Dive
Description
Blue Dive’s Port Douglas 4 day PADI Learn to Dive Course
The Great Barrier Reef, with its cacophony of marine life, is undeniably one of the most amazing natural wonders on earth. Exploring this incredible underwater paradise with Blue Dive is the best way to truly experience its beauty. The Blue Dive team is extremely professional and energizing, yet personable and friendly. Most importantly, the team at Blue Dive is dedicated to providing PADI scuba diving instruction in a safe, personal and high quality manner.
There is a strict policy of only accepting up to five divers on each Open Water Course to enable each student to get as much close attention as possible. Just as individual attention helps students learn better in a classroom, dive students thrive with the personal instruction that only small groups can provide.
Blue Dive’s friendly and professional team are dedicated to enabling students to gain access to safe, high quality and highly individualised dive instruction. Upon successful completion of the course, you will be a PADI certified diver licensed to dive up to 18 metres together with a buddy.
The Open Water Course entitles you to an extra dive free of charge, so you will participate in 5 Open Water dives on the outer Great Barrier Reef rather than only 4. All the reef trips will take you all the way to the outer Great Barrier Reef.
Days 1 & 2
On Days 1 and 2, you will learn essential dive skills in the Port Douglas swimming pool. You’ll also learn dive theory in an outdoor classroom that enjoys shade from the sun. You’ll practise pool dives, undergo skills training and learn theory.
Days 3 & 4
Spend the next two days diving the outer Great Barrier Reef. Blue Dive is equipped with some of Queensland’s most advanced dive facilities, and you will head to the outer Great Barrier Reef at high speeds on Poseidon, a modern and speedy catamaran. There is no better location to finish your Open Water Course.
