The Course
With the Open Water Diver Course, you’ll practice a part of the exercises in the pool and of course… in the open water. The course consists of 5 pool dives and 4 open water dives. We dive in two of the most beautiful pools in Amsterdam: the Zuiderbad next to the Rijksmuseum and the De Mirandad which is just a 15 minutes’ car drive away from the Vinkeveense plassen. Which is perfect because this is where we mostly do the open water dives. It’s the perfect spot to start your diving adventure. The bottom is filled with white sand, wrecks and even a school bus!
Theory is also a part of the course. You are looking at 10 hours of self study. We use the newest 2025 developed elearning. So you can be assured you get the best possible start of your diving carreer.
