FAQ

Questions before you book

Common questions before joining the Open Water course.

How is the course structured?

After the theory portion, two pool sessions and four open-water dives at Beomseom, usually 3–4 days. Lodging, breakfast and lunch, all equipment, license issuance and boat dives during the course are included; dinner is separate.

Can I get certified if I can't swim at all?

The Open Water course includes a basic swim/float test. If you can't swim at all, we suggest getting comfortable with a discover dive first, then taking the course.
