     The prices below are an indication of price range, but can vary depending on the destination, please inquire for detailed pricing and schedules.


Passport Diver Program: This is a non-certification program for vacationers who do not have the time to complete a certification course. It is an ideal program to get the first taste of what scuba diving is all about - Adventure, Fun, Excitement and don't forget Safety!
    The program is run in one day with 2 ocean dives in shallow water. After the participants have shown a mastery of basic safety knowledge related to diving, the instructor will take them for the first shallow scuba dive which will involve some basic skills and an underwater tour on a tropical coral house reef for experience. The second dive will be completed after lunch and will involve coral reef sightseeing and basic environment awareness.
    One of the numerous benefits of the program is that all skills completed in the Passport Diver may be credited towards the full certification course, your next logical step after this fun program. You will be issued a NAUI diver's passport recognized worldwide! One must be 12 years old minimum to enroll.


Scuba Diver Course: Your first step as an educated scuba diver. This 4 day course will give the novice diver basic knowledge to interact safely with their equipment, dive buddies, group, aquatic environment, boat operations and dive leaders in charge.
    The course is divided into 3 segments:
    1) Knowledge development - based on book study, classroom lectures and video.
    2) Watermanship and stamina - based on very basic water skills requirements such as swimming and basic use of mask, fins, and snorkel.
    3) Skin & Scuba diving skills development - in a pool environment or confined water first. You will learn the basic techniques to be a safe diver under the direct control of your NAUI Instructor.
    Then will come the time of applying these skills in the ocean in a non-threatening environment not exceeding 18 m. (60 ft.) depth with your Instructor. Now is when you get the fun and thrill of submerging in  the natural environment. You will perform 5 scuba dives with your Instructor to qualify as a NAUI Scuba Diver. You must be 15 years old to be certified or 12 years old as a Junior Scuba Diver.
    We run this course with 2 basic options: Regular course involving all required training, educational materials and knowledge development, taught by a qualified, experienced NAUI Instructor. Or, the VIP private course taught by a NAUI Course Director, including all training and student package kit for NAUI scuba diver. Please advise in advance if interested in our private 'one on one' course.


Advanced Diver Course: This course is the logical complementary step towards becoming a complete diver.

Scuba Rescue Course: This course is combined with a NAUI First Aid / CPR Course and is the perfect complement to the Scuba Diver Course, where novice divers trained with basic in-water rescue as an aware buddy. The course is run in 3 days and involves knowledge development in classroom and in-water practice for rescuing skin and scuba divers alike.
    A more sophisticated rescue course is the Advanced Rescue Course. This is the logical next step to the rescue course and will also involve training in oxygen therapy to treat diving related injuries.
