Beginning Scuba Classes

PADI Open Water Scuba Diver Course

The PADI Open Water Diving Course is the beginning of your underwater adventure! Imagine watching countless fish on a tropical reef as you glide below the surface and continue to breathe!

In the Open Water Scuba Diver Course, our instructors will take you through all the basics of learning how to dive. You start in the classroom at Lone Star Scuba where you will be introduced to the equipment and science needed to safely enjoy your new hobby. You will then proceed to an indoor junior Olympic heated swimming pool where you will learn and practice the basic skills of SCUBA diving. Your beginning scuba class concludes with four open water dives where you can first experience the excitement of being in a whole new world. After the class is complete you will receive your PADI Open Water Diver certification card that will allow you to dive all over the world.
