Kefi Divers

Scuba Diver Course (PADI)

Become a certified PADI Scuba Diver with a shorter training programme, ideal for those who want to start scuba diving but have limited time.

Want to become a certified scuba diver but don't have enough time to complete the full Open Water Diver Course? The PADI Scuba Diver Course offers a shorter route to certification while giving you the essential knowledge and skills you need to begin your diving journey. Your course starts with PADI eLearning, which is provided as soon as you sign up. You can complete the theory at your own pace before arriving at Kefi Divers, giving you more time to focus on your practical training once you're here. Your practical training is split across two half days. You'll first spend a half day in the swimming pool, where you'll learn and practise the essential scuba skills in a controlled environment. This gives you time to become comfortable with your equipment, your buoyancy and breathing underwater while working closely with your instructor. On a separate half day, you'll complete two open water dives, putting the skills you've learnt into practice in the beautiful waters of Crete. Your instructor will guide you throughout the dives, helping you build confidence while gaining real experience in the sea. The PADI Scuba Diver certification allows you to dive to a maximum depth of 12 metres under the direct supervision of a PADI Professional. This makes it a genuine scuba diving certification while providing a shorter training route for people who don't have the time to complete the full Open Water Diver Course. At Kefi Divers, we keep our courses small and personalise your training to suit your experience, learning style and pace. We want you to feel comfortable and confident throughout the process rather than feeling rushed through the requirements of the course. Your Scuba Diver certification can also be upgraded to the PADI Open Water Diver certification in the future. You won't need to start again from the beginning. You'll continue your training from where you left off and develop the additional knowledge and skills required for the full certification.
