More Than Just Scuba Diving
Freediving
Just one breath of air and then you and the ocean. Experience the beauty of the underwater world in a serene and peaceful way, and enjoy uniquely natural marine animal encounters.
Freediving may appear relatively simple, but doing it safely requires knowledge and skills best taught by a qualified instructor. PADI’s freediving courses will teach you invaluable techniques to help you improve your confidence in the water while having a greater understanding of your body and mind.
Mermaid Diving
Mermaid diving is a world with one foot in reality and the other in fantasy. The PADI Mermaid Program is designed to be a rewarding and fun experience, suited to anyone with an interest in mermaid diving and basic swimming abilities. Although this experience shares techniques and equipment used in scuba and freediving, mermaid diving (or ‘mermaiding’) is its own form of diving and can be learned by non-divers and divers alike.
Emergency First Response
Emergency First Response® (EFR®) CPR and first aid training teaches you how to help someone in need in the water or out of the water. An accident can happen anytime, anywhere. By taking part in an EFR course, you’ll have the skills and the confidence to step forward and provide care.
The PADI eLearning® Difference
Whether you want to learn to scuba dive or you’re a certified scuba diver looking to continue your education, PADI’s digital scuba programs are the way to go. Work at your own pace, online or offline, using your computer or mobile device. Schedule in-water training when you’re ready.
