Frequently asked

What people ask before booking

PADI stands for Professional Association of Diving Instructors. It is the world's leading certifying organization for recreational diving, preparing more divers globally than any other agency. A PADI certification is recognized worldwide and is valid for life, ensuring you can dive anywhere you go.

Your diving adventure begins with the PADI Open Water Diver course. This comprehensive program teaches you everything necessary to become an autonomous diver, allowing you to explore the underwater world safely up to a depth of 18 meters.

The minimum age is 12 years old (with parental authorization). You must be able to swim and complete a health questionnaire or provide a medical certificate if necessary. No prior diving experience is required.

The course includes PADI e-learning for theory, pool practice sessions, four open water dives in La Herradura, all necessary diving equipment, dive insurance for the course, and your international PADI Open Water Diver certification. Accommodation in the Casa Escuela is also included (subject to availability).

Option 1 is a complete 3-4 day course in La Herradura, Granada, ideal for full immersion. Option 2 involves online theory and pool sessions in Madrid, followed by open water dives in La Herradura, suitable for those based in or near Madrid.

The PADI Enriched Air Nitrox specialty is the most popular PADI specialty. It allows you to extend your bottom time, especially on successive dives, by reducing your nitrogen exposure. The course can be completed in a few hours, often without open water dives, though optional dives are available.
