Scuba Diving Courses
Guanaja offers some of the healthiest coral reefs in the Caribbean. With little to no current, our calm blue waters provide an ideal training environment for scuba diving courses. Small class sizes or private training ensure you can learn at your own pace and never feel rushed.
Much of your training will take place on our large dive boats. In addition, taking a scuba diving course this way enables you to spend more time with your traveling companions.
Scuba Tuneup
If you’re feeling a bit rusty on your scuba skills, or a bit nervous about getting in the water again, it’s best to take a quick refresher. This class consists of a brief lecture going over basic Do’s and Don’ts followed by a short pool session practicing the most critical skills such as mask clearing and regulator retrieval. Our PADI instructors will get you in the water, having fun and feeling comfortable again so you can thoroughly enjoy your dive vacation.
Discover Scuba Diving/Resort Course
If you have never been diving but just want to spend a few hours finding out what the excitement is all about, the Discover Scuba Diving experience is for you. The course consists of a short 30 minute eLearning and knowledge review session before we take you into the pool to teach you the most important and basic diving skill. The after lunch, you’re off on the afternoon boat for a 1-tank boat dive to a maximum depth of 40 ft under the supervision of your instructor. And if you love it? You can continue to add on additional days of supervised diving at $40.00 + tax per tank. You can even apply certain parts of the course toward your Open Water Diver Certification!
Open Water Completion/Referral Dives
This course is for students who have completed their class and pool training with their local dive shop before traveling to Guanaja. This course is a great way to get to know divers in your community before heading our way with your Student Referral Letter to complete your open water dives in our clear, warm water.
Enriched Air/Nitrox Certification
The chances are that you’re taking a dive vacation because you want to spend as much time underwater as possible. Nitrox is the perfect way to extend your bottom time. This course is so popular that it’s been streamlined when purchasing the PADI eLearning Module so that you can get the academics done ahead of vacation.
