Earn the world's most popular diving certification with the PADI Open Water Diver course in Key Largo, set in the warm, clear, calm waters of the Florida Keys. Across confined-water sessions and four open-water dives on the protected reefs of John Pennekamp, you learn every core scuba skill and finish certified to dive to 18 metres anywhere in the world. It is a great place to begin a lifetime of diving.
PADI Open Water Diver certifies you to 18 metres and is recognised worldwide as the entry-level scuba qualification. eLearning lets you complete the theory before arrival, which maximises your in-water time in Key Largo, and the course leads directly into Advanced Open Water.
Open Water training dives are done on the shallow, calm reefs of John Pennekamp Coral Reef State Park near Key Largo, including sites like Molasses and Elbow Reef. Warm water (22-29C), good visibility and a long April-to-October peak season make for ideal learning conditions.
