Practical information

This course consists of 3 different components: an eLearning theoretical lesson, a practical session in the pool, and one open water drive from a boat that will take you a bit far from the shore. This is a "try dive", which means that it does not lead to a PADI certification, but you will receive a PADI digital certificate of completion in the end.
