App Description

Ever wanted to swim with the fishes or get eye-to-eye with a shark? Then scuba diving is the sporting activity for you. You might already be a keen watersports enthusiast, but if you’ve only ever stayed on the surface then you are missing a whole new world just ripe for exploring. And if you have remained on terra-firma till now, then come on down and take the plunge.

Getting certified to scuba dive has never been easier - you can become a PADI Open Water Diver in just four days. A PADI Open Water Diver certification - and subsequent higher levels of training - is your passport to the world of diving, and your C-card will open the door to exotic locations in far-flung destinations and diving opportunities closer to home. And with more than 5,000 PADI dive centres in 180 countries, you are never going to be short of places to visit!

Over the following pages, you’ll find comprehensive information about the PADI courses available to you, and a ‘beginner’s guide to equipment’ to help you make sense of all that gear!

We’ve also pulled together details of dive sites around the UK coastline and across the world that are suitable for newly qualified divers, so wherever you live or go on holiday, there is sure to be a dive site near you!

This great free guide is presented to you by Sport Diver magazine, the official magazine of the PADI Diving Society in the UK. For a regular fix of diving news, kit reviews, dive sites and much more you'll find the Sport Diver magazine app on the App Store by searching for 'Sport Diver Magazine'.
