Certified Scuba Diving Program
Certified Scuba Diving ProgramCertified Scuba Diving ProgramIf you’re not certified and would like to scuba for the first time, we offer two introductory dive programs that, once completed, will allow you to explore the underwater world with all of the top-of-the-line equipment, dive boats, and certified staff included.
Read the Medical Questionnaire. Should you answer “yes” to any of the questions listed, the form must be signed by a physician prior to arrival at the resort.
If you’ve always wanted to experience Scuba but never had the time it takes to get certified, Beaches can qualify you to dive at the resort in just a few hours.
After enrolling, PADI’s eLearning system presents you with interactive presentations that include videos, audio, graphics and reading. Short quizzes let you gauge your progress, and review and correct anything you might happen to miss. This lets you move through the program efficiently and at your own pace.
