We are well aware of the
challenges of completing
Open Water training in
UK waters, particularly
at certain times of the
year. There is an option
to complete confined
water training and
theory sessions with a
PADI Centre here and
then complete your
course over a short trip
with us. There are a
number of advantages to
this including less
stressful training
conditions, warmer water
and arguably more stuff
to see!
In PADI language this is
called a referral and to
choose to complete your
Open Water course with
us you need to do the
following:
Ask your current
instructor to
complete a referral
record and a copy of
your medical
statement, and for
this to be sent to
us.
Download and
complete the
following forms and
send them to us in
