open water referal
more flexibility ....
If you are thinking of travelling abroad (a bit like Pete Hulme on the right - read his story in the "About Us section") and doing some diving in the warm waters of the Med, or the Caribbean, then it could be that the open water referral is the course for you. Why spend 3 days of your precious holiday sat in a classroom and a swimming pool when you should be enjoying the wonders of the open water in your destination?
more convenience ....
Conducted
over one weekend, the Open Water Referral here at Triton Scuba provides you
with all the pool training and theory you need so that you can then go off
on your holiday and finish off the open water dives with a dive centre in
your holiday destination. This option is particularly popular in the
winter months when the UK waters are a bit chilly, although we find that most
of our referral students end up completing the full course because they are
having so much fun. Don't worry, if you decide to do that it is not
a problem. For the ultimate in convenience and flexibility click on the eLearning logo above.
better training ....
The
course is broken down into a number of modules to make learning easy and fun.
We will need you to do a bit of studying before you start the course and we will give you the latest multi-media teaching materials to help. Over the weekend we will cover the fundamentals
of scuba diving and you will spend 6 hours in the pool which is much more than many dive centres. Once completed
we provide you with a referral form which you take away to your holiday destination
to complete your training in warmer climes.
better value ....
Triton
Scuba provides all the equipment that you will need for training. We believe
that when you buy your equipment you should have some knowledge of diving
and what you want. So don't rush into it. All the equipment is provided for
the course. It is well worth taking some basics with you when you go abroad and our well stocked shop and experienced staff can help you with what you need. We know what is
good and what is not and can provide you with appropriate expert and impartial
advice when making purchases.
The price of the open water referral course is just £199, but please remember when making comparisons that this includes everything you need, including your manuals, electronic dive tables, log books, pool entry fees and certificates ... and 6 hours of pool training time. There is nothing else to pay.
more fun ....
Whilst you do not have to be a good swimmer, you do need water confidence. At some point in your course, your PADI Instructor will ask you to demonstrate this ability, by swimming 200 metres without swimming aids and treading water for 10 minutes. Virtually anyone who is in good health, reasonably fit, and comfortable in the water can earn a PADI Open Water Diver certification. However there are occasions and conditions when diving can be strenuous, and so a Medical Declaration Form must be completed before any training can take place.
