You can further your training by earning the PADI Open Water Diver certification and taking specialty courses.
This course is eLearning based, that means you can complete your theory study in the comfort of your home at your own pace before arriving, and then just enjoying the practical training when getting here!
If instead you decide to take the course on the very last minute, you'll have plenty of time to complete it here in just one day, alternating own study and practical sessions.
