Product Description

During this course, you will partake in the classroom and pool sessions that are a standard first portion of the Open Water course. You can also upgrade to the full Open Water Program during the course, should you decide that you wish to complete your scuba training in Toronto. We often find that our students are more comfortable completing the certification with us after they have completed our class and pool sessions. So, if you rather finish everything off with us, let us know! If you do decide to finish your course elsewhere, we will provide you with official documentation that any Instructor and/or facility around the world will recognize and be able to continue on with your certification. This official documentation is your “Referral Letter”, which you will receive in your Open Water Crew Pack.

So, what are you waiting for? It’s a diver’s world out there! This is the beginning of an adventure you will never forget.

  • Dry Suit Diver

    $150.00

    Want to stay warm? Want to extend your scuba diving season? Then dive dry. A dry suit seals you off from the water and keeps you comfortable, even in surprisingly cold water. There is incredible diving in the world’s cooler regions and in some areas, conditions are even better in colder months. You will enjoy diving the wrecks of Tobermory and Brockville even more. Becoming a dry suit diver allows you to expand your boundaries and dive more places, more often.

    If you’re at least 10 years old and certified as a (Junior) Open Water Diver or higher, you can enroll in the Dry Suit Diver course.

    Drysuit course 1
    Pool Date: May 25 1pm-4:30pm
    Open Water Date: June 15 9:30am-2pm

    Drysuit Course 2

  • Ice Diver

    $100.00 – $399.00

    If extreme, unusual and challenging scuba diving scenarios appeal to you, try diving under the ice. Ice diving is one of the most adventurous scuba specialties because you confront conditions and see beauty few others ever experience. Plus, you might get a chance to play with your exhaled bubbles on the bottom of the ice. Flash your Ice Diver certification card to get instant respect, and usually a lot of questions from other divers about what it’s like under the ice.

    You need to be an Advanced Open Water Diver who is at least 18 years old to enroll in the Ice Diver course. Six divers minimum required for safety reasons.

  • Digital Underwater Photographer & Videographer

    $150.00 – $287.00

    Underwater photography and videography is one of the most popular diving specialties, and with so many underwater cameras to choose from, it has become easier and more fun than ever to capture images and videos of your underwater scuba adventures. The Digital Underwater Photographer & Videographer course gets you going quickly, whether you use a point-and-shoot camera, a GoPro, or a sophisticated DSLR like the pros. Video is the best way to share the sights, sounds, motion and dynamics of the underwater world. If you want to get the best clips and also learn to edit your scuba diving stories to share with friends through social media, then this specialty course is for you. Learn to create underwater videos that are interesting, entertaining and worth watching again and again.

    (Junior) Open Water Divers who are at least 10 years old are eligible to take the Digital Underwater Photographer & Videographer course.

    Because underwater photography and videography is also popular with snorkelers, there is an option for avid snorkelers and skin divers to complete the course. Check with our dive shop if this interests you.

    Deep Diver

    $200.00

    The lure of the deep. There’s something exciting and mysterious about exploring deeper dive sites while scuba diving. Sometimes it’s a wreck that attracts you below 18 metres/60 feet, and on wall dives it may be a giant fan or sponge. Whatever it is, to scuba dive with confidence at depths down to 40 metres/130 feet, you should take the Deep Diver Specialty course.

    If you’ve earned the Adventure Diver rating or higher, and you’re at least 15 years old, you can enroll in the Deep Diver course.

    Course materials required. Boat charter additional.

  • Drift Diver

    $150.00

    The Drift Diver Specialty course teaches you how to enjoy going with the flow as you scuba dive down rivers and use ocean currents to glide along. It feels like flying – except that you’re underwater using scuba equipment. Drift diving can be relaxing and exhilarating at the same time. If this sounds like fun, then the Drift Diver course is for you.

    If you’re a (Junior) Open Water Diver who is at least 12 years old, you can enroll in the Drift Diver specialty course.

    Join our next Brockville Dive weekend to complete your Drift Diver Specialty. Course materials required.

  • Full Face Mask Diver

    $150.00

    The Full Face Mask course prepares you to dive with a full face mask. The course covers basic safety, technical and practical knowledge necessary to be a competent full face mask diver and feel comfortable using your system. You will participate in an academic session to learn the features of full face masks, gain familiarity with the system in the pool, and finish by demonstrating skills in the open water to gain your full face mask certification specialty card.

    If you’re a (Junior) Open Water Diver who is at least 12 years old, you can enroll in the Full Face Mask specialty course.

    Course materials not included.
    Full face mask rental: $100
