Open Water SCUBA NAUI Certification

Signup deadlines: May 31 for June courses, July 5 for July courses

Outdoor Adventure offers three different levels of SCUBA certifications; open water, advanced, and enriched air (Nitrox). The classes are usually held in the Recreation and Wellness Center lap pool and wet classroom. SCUBA Diver is our entry level scuba certification course during which you will learn the fundamental knowledge and skills to safely scuba dive in open water. The format of this class is a classroom session, two pool sessions, a spring dive and an ocean dive. The cost of the course is $275. The items included in the cost are: instruction, classroom materials, dives, Scuba gear (regulator, tanks, BCD), wetsuit (if needed), and C-card. The Advanced SCUBA Diver course is an enjoyable certification course for certified divers who desire additional training, have moved from one diving area to another and desire local orientation, do not have, but wish to obtain, NAUI certification, or who desire orientation to a variety of diving sites and conditions. The format of this course is one classroom session and 6 dives. The cost of the course is $300. The items included are instruction, classroom materials, dives, Scuba gear (regulator, tanks, BCD), wetsuit (if needed), and C-card. In the Enriched Air class you will learn how to choose the proper blend of Nitrox for your dive profile, determine maximum depth limits for your Nitrox mixture, analyze your breathing mixture, and plan and safely execute each dive. The cost of the course is $50. The items included are instruction, classroom materials and C-card. A SCUBA-quality mask, snorkel, wetsuit, fins, and SCUBA booties are the student's responsibility.
