PADI / SSI OPEN WATER COURSE

Begin your adventure under the waves

Learn to Dive in Paradise

Start Your Red Sea Scuba adventure with Umbi

The PADI / SSI Open Water Course certification is the scuba diving course that most people choose and is the foundation of the PADI educational system.  Learn to dive with Sharks Bay Umbi Diving Village in one of the best diving destinations in the world. With its abundance of beautiful coral and teeming with fish life, Sharm el Sheikh is the perfect place to take your first breaths underwater.

Once you have obtained your lifetime Open Water Diver certificate you will be able to Scuba dive anywhere in the world to a maximum depth of 18 metres. For Junior Open Water divers aged 10 and 11 years the maximum depth is 12 metres.

The 4 day PADI / SSI Open Water course begins in the classroom with the DVD and then the knowledge development continues in the open air of the beach front dive centre. Here the basic principles and knowledge for safe and enjoyable Scuba diving will be reviewed and explained by your instructor. You will complete your five confined water dives on our house reef where, in the pool like conditions of the bay, you can comfortably master all the underwater skills whilst enjoying the beauty of the Red Sea. The four open water dives; the final two being to a depth of a maximum of 18 metres, will either be conducted on our house reef or from one of our boats at nearby coastal reefs.

PADI E-Learning

Take the classroom section of your PADI Diving Courses out of your holiday and do it in the comfort of your own home. If you are on a tight time schedule or just want to spend less hours in the classroom then sign up for a PADI eLearning and begin your theory before you arrive on your holiday. Complete diving courses in fewer days to give yourself more time to enjoy your diving in the warm waters of the Red Sea. 

Duration & Prerequisites

Please note that all student divers must complete the PADI Divers Medical Questionnaire and Medical Statement prior to starting any course.

If a student has any of the medical conditions that are listed then signed clearance from a doctor experienced in diving medicine must be provided on check-in, this can also be arranged locally with the doctors at the hyperbaric chamber.
