Learn to dive with our Pro team

The RAID Scuba Diver Course is a comprehensive program designed to teach beginner divers the skills and knowledge needed to safely explore the underwater world. RAID stands for "Rebreather Association of International Divers," and is a leading diving organization that sets standards for scuba diving education.

During the RAID Scuba Diver Course, students will learn the basics of scuba diving, including equipment selection and maintenance, dive planning, underwater communication, and emergency procedures. The course is divided into a series of theoretical and practical modules that cover all aspects of scuba diving.

Students will begin with classroom sessions that cover the physics and physiology of diving, as well as the proper use and maintenance of diving equipment. They will also learn about dive planning and the importance of safety procedures, such as the buddy system and emergency protocols.

In addition to the theoretical modules, students will participate in practical training sessions in a swimming pool or shallow open water. Here, they will practice essential diving skills such as buoyancy control, mask clearing, and underwater communication. They will also learn how to respond to common diving emergencies, such as running out of air or losing their dive buddy.

Finally, students will complete a series of open water dives under the supervision of their instructor. During these dives, they will have the opportunity to explore the underwater world and practice their newly acquired skills in a real-world setting.

Upon successful completion of the RAID Scuba Diver Course, students will be certified to dive to a maximum depth of 18 meters (60 feet) under the supervision of a certified diving professional. This certification is recognized worldwide and is a prerequisite for advanced scuba diving courses.
