PADI® Open Water Diver is the first step toward becoming a certified scuba diver. At UB Diving, we combine the PADI Open Water Diver course with Dry Suit Diver training because that's how most people dive here on Vancouver Island.
Learning to dive in British Columbia means learning to dive in real-world conditions. You'll develop the skills, confidence and experience needed to safely explore reefs, wrecks and marine life throughout the waters of Vancouver Island and beyond.
Our instructors provide a relaxed, supportive learning environment while helping you become a competent, confident diver. Whether your goal is local diving, underwater photography, travel, or simply seeing what lies beneath the surface, this course is your starting point.
