PADI Open Water
The PADI Open Water Course is the place to start your underwater adventures. Upon certification you will be certified to dive unsupervised to a recommended maximum depth of 18 meters.
RECREATIONAL DIVING COURSES
Scuba Diving Tasmania has four instructors teaching recreational courses.
Please browse the options. From the excitement of discovering the thrill of breathing underwater for the first time, through to professional levels of guiding and assisting on courses.
Everyone starts here and we pride ourselves on quality not quantity.
We want people that have invested in our sport to continue being active in it. We believe the quality of your very first experience plays the greatest part in developing you as a confident diver that continues diving rather than doing a course and wasting their investment.
PADI Advanced Openwater
The Advanced Open Water Diver course is all about advancing your skills. You’ll practice navigation and buoyancy, try deep diving as a core part of the course and make three specialty dives of your choosing.
PADI Rescue Diver
The Rescue diver course prepares you to respond if things don’t go as planned and the unexpected happens. Many divers say this is the most valuable course you can do.
PADI DIVE MASTER
The PADI Divemaster Course is your ticket to work in the sport that you love. As a Divemaster you can obtain insurance to organise and supervise certified divers while being paid for it!
ASSISTANT INSTRUCTOR
If you have ambitions of becoming a diving instructor, the PADI Assistant Instructor course takes PADI Divemaster training a step further by teaching how to introduce new knowledge and skills independently, or with minimal supervision.
Enriched Air (Nitrox)
Enriched Air Nitrox is the most popular specialty available. It is usually marketed as having two main benefits. Firstly, it can be used to extend bottom times, particularly in the 20-35mtr range. It also has a legitimate reputation for increasing safety margins if used with air profiles.
WRECK DIVER
Wrecks provide great diving as they usually attract an abundance of marine growth and fish becoming artificial reefs.
BOAT DIVER
Some diving course providers do not offer boat dives as part of the Open Water Course. Boats provide many more options and access to dive sites. It’s not just about rolling off a boat though, done properly this course teaches you how to tie knots, use marine radios in emergency situations and much more.
SIDE MOUNT DIVER
Sidemount diving is not a new concept, but its application has spread from cave diving to open water recreational and technical diving.
PEAK PERFORMANCE BUOYANCY
The Peak Performance Buoyancy Specialty Diver course is designed to polish
a diver’s buoyancy control beyond the Open Water Diver level to be more
efficient, saving air and energy, and help the diver avoid damage to the aquatic
environment.
MASTER SCUBA DIVER
Less than two percent of divers ever achieve this rating! Master Scuba Divers are recognised as having a combination of significant training and diving experience and this certification can be particularly useful if you intend to travel and dive with charter operators.
