What is the scuba diving instruction like?

Scuba Instruction

A typical scuba certification course requires four weeks of study, two days per week. One day per week will be classroom study, while the other will be pool work. Once all scuba instruction and written tests have been completed, the scuba dive students will go for their open water check out dives. These are usually a minimum of four or five separate dives, which must be completed over a period of at least two days. If all dives are completed successfully, the student becomes a certified scuba diver.
