Calendar

Available year-round, the schedule is completely flexible and customizable based upon you and/or your private group’s needs. It may be completed in either consecutive days or scheduled over a few weeks or months timeline, however, scheduling days closer together is best for your learning curve. We recommend reserving the 4 course days upon registration but is not required to start the process. Both Open Water dive days may be completed on shallow reefs off of Key Largo or Miami, or a combination of both depending on preference, scheduling, and weather conditions. Our Private Open Water Course is completely custom-tailored to your needs and focuses on you, the student. Unlike a chaotic dive shop with overloaded classes that crams everything into 2 or 3 grueling long days, our four day Open Water Certification is a safer and more enjoyable pace for students while offering more instructor face time and preventing super long days. Rather than a traditional dive shop that constantly tries to upsell on gear and gives out certifications without proper skill mastery, we focus purely on education and safety through a no-rush personalized experience making sure every student becomes a safe and comfortable PADI Open Water Diver. Upon completing this course, you will earn a PADI Open Water Scuba Certification, valid for a life. While teaching is always our passion, Aquatics International also provides exotic expeditions and unforgettable local experiences which demand good dive skills and strong fundamentals. This is reflected in our private courses as we pride ourselves on creating the best divers with real-world skills, safety, and comfort in the water. These fundamentals, learned in your OW course, will allow you to breeze through your AOW course and easily advance to many of the more adventurous and challenging dives we offer around the world from our Bahamas Hammerhead Shark Dive to our Kona Hawaii Expedition to our annual liveaboard in the Galapagos!
