Instruction & Classes

At Pan Aqua, we have been offering the most thorough scuba training for over 20 years. Our courses are designed to help you develop and expand your interest so that you may enjoy this unique sport safely and competently.  The following information will answer questions most frequently asked of our course.

Scuba training takes place in two parts. First is the classroom and pool portion which most people do before their Caribbean vacation so they can maximize their vacation time. Second is the "open water" certification portion which consists of four supervised scuba dives during which your skills will be reviewed by a scuba instructor.

Upon successful completion of the course and four open water dives, an internationally recognized certification is given. The open water dives are conducted locally as weather permits or take a letter of referral to a dive destination of your choosing to complete the dives with a local instructor.  Pan Aqua is happy to recommend and arrange dive travel for you.
