Spanish plus Diving Course in Playa Del Carmen

Playa del Carmen is the perfect location for students to learn Spanish. It's also a great place to learn to dive.

 

Course A. Diving for Beginners
The Diving for Beginners course is a 3-day course leading to the PADI Open Water certificate for dives of up to 18 meters.

The course includes theory sessions, pool sessions, 4 ocean boat dives, exams, equipment and certification. Students will need 2 passport size photos.

As a first step students are required to read 3 chapters of the PADI open water manual. They need to do this before day 1 of the course.

  • Day 1 of the course goes over the theory, introduces students to the equipment and includes initial training in a swimming pool (6 to 8 hours). This first training session will normally take place on a Saturday or Sunday, so as not to clash with the Spanish classes held in the mornings.
  • Day 2 students practice the skills learned at the pool in shallow ocean reefs (3 hours in the afternoon).
  • Day 3 students dive up to 60ft in open water, practice more skills and take the final dive test (4 hours in the afternoon).

 

Course B. Advanced Diving Course
This is a 2-3 day course that leads to the PADI certificate for dives up to 30 meters.
A pre-requisite for participating in the course is the PADI Open Water Course certificate or equivalent.

The course includes sessions on the theoretical aspects of diving, loan of a dive manual, 5 ocean dives and certification. The ocean dives include: 1 navigation dive, 1 deep dive, and 3 optional dives (photography, video, wreck dives, night dives, etc.).

All dives and other activities are programmed so as not to clash with the Spanish lessons taken in the mornings.
