Panglao SCUBA Open Water Diver Course Inclusions and Itinerary

It's good to know what to expect on your SCUBA Open Water Course so you can easily fix your Panglao vacation itinerary. Let's start with the tentative itinerary of your Open water Course (as the exact timing can differ according to availability):

​​

Open Water Diver Course | Day 1:

The first day of the course is dedicated to learning the necessary skills for becoming an open-water diver.  We'll start the day with an equipment assembly class in which you'll learn to assemble, check, and even treat and maintain life-saving equipment and convenience equipment you'll use in all scuba dives.

​

Right after we'll continue to the pool / confined water area for your confined water training in which you'll learn all the basic scuba skills: finding regulator, mask clearing, sharing air, equipment removal, fin pivot, calf release, breathing from an overflowing regulator, swimming ascent and more.

Duration: Half a day

​

Open Water Diver Course | Day 2:

This day you'll perform two open-water dives, in the ocean! You'll get to practice your buoyance and perform some of the confined water skills in real life. This is the day you get to experience SCUBA Diving in reality while we ensure you're diving in a safe environment under the watchful eyes of your instructors.

Duration: Half a day

​

Open Water Diver Course | Day 3:

The last day of your OWD course will include two dives in which you'll get to hone your buoyance skills and perform more elaborate skills in the ocean like swimming ascent, and equipment removal. Your skills will be evaluated to ensure you qualify for your OWD international certificate.
