Jordan is blessed with spectacular natural beauty and copious amounts of historical and archaeological interest. From the brilliant Roman site at Jerash to the sensational rose-red city of Petra; from the spectacular scenery of T. E. Lawrence Wadi Rum to the outstanding coral reefs of Aqaba - the treasures of Jordan are numerous. All this compounded with people whose warm and cordial reception will guarantee that your stay is a truly memorable one.

Diving in Aqaba is Perfect for Learn To Dive Perfect for Qualified diver with daily dives

All the dive sites in Jordan are located close to the shoreline, meaning both boat and shore diving access is available at the same sites. The diving along this coastline is excellent and exceeds other diving in the Northern Red Sea. It is the perfect choice for beginner divers through to the more experienced. There is some exciting diving close to the Saudi border where you will find deep walls, many of these walls have only just been discovered! Another highlight, when diving this area, is seeing the Cedar Pride, which is well-known as one of the best wreck dives in the Red Sea. Visibility averages around 35-40m throughout the area.

PADI Open Water E-Learning Course (Incl. E Learning)

Duration: 4 day

$456

Per Person

day

Details

Description :

Diver certification begins here. Start with PADI's online eLearning course. Move to the pool and practice your new skills. Then experience four open water (ocean/lake) dives. During the PADI Open Water Diver course, you’ll learn what you need to know to explore the underwater world using scuba.

The PADI Open Water Diver course includes three parts: Knowledge Development, Confined Water Dives, and Open Water Dives. Knowledge Development covers the principles, concepts and terms you need to know for dive safety and enjoyment. During the Confined Water Dives, you learn and practice scuba skills in a pool or water with pool-like conditions. You’ll enjoy making one or more minidives, which take you through the same steps you follow when you make open water dives. To complete training you practice, apply, and demonstrate what you learn during four Open Water Dives at a local dive site.

Earning a PADI Open Water Diver certification shows that you met the course requirements. Dive centers and resorts require proof of certification before they will rent scuba equipment, fill scuba cylinders or book dive excursions. As a PADI Open Water Diver, you’ll be trained to a maximum depth of 18 metres/60 feet, and are qualified to dive in conditions as good as, or better than, those in which you trained. It’s just the beginning of a lifetime filled with dive adventures.

In the PADI Open Water Diver course, you learn to use basic scuba gear, including a mask, snorkel, fins, regulator, buoyancy control device, and a tank. The equipment you wear varies, depending upon whether you’re diving in tropical, temperate or cold water.

Description :

PADI’s Junior Open Water Diver course is similar to the adult certification program and prepares kids to become full-fledged divers when they are of age. Students as young as 10 years old can utilize the eLearning program Open Water Diver course online (minimum age requirements may be higher in some locations due to local laws and regulations). This course allows kids to get their first PADI scuba certification. Children can learn how to scuba dive, discover new adventures, or simply see the wondrous world beneath the waves, this is where it starts.

The PADI Junior Open Water Course is typically run over five days and is a fun-filled course designed to qualify kids to dive to a maximum depth of 12m. The fun part about this course is . . . well, just about all of it because learning to dive is incredible. Kids get to learn to breathe underwater for the first time (something they’ll never forget) and learn what they need to know to become a certified diver. During the course, children will first train in the pool and then get to explore wondrous reefs, under the supervision of a PADI Instructor.

The PADI Junior Open Water Course consists of three main phases:

- Knowledge development to understand basic principles of scuba diving.
- Confined water dives (pool training) to learn basic scuba skills.
- Open water dives to review skills and explore!

In the PADI Junior Open Water Course, children will learn to use basic scuba gear and standard accessories.

Duration: 4 dive

Daily guided diving, shore entry.

$135

dive

Details

Description :

In many dive resorts the best dive site are close to the shore so there is no need for boat diving, shore entry dives are used. Normally this will mean walking into the sea from the beach, from a jetty, or sometimes walking over rocks. It is best not to do shore diving if you have any back problems as it can be stressful on your body when entering and exiting the water. From day to day the dive centre may offer the option to join a boat dive, or do a trip to a further away dive site, which will require a supplement to be paid locally.

This dive service is guided by a divemaster, instructor or similar. It includes tanks, weights and air only. If you need to rent diving equipment this can be done onsite and paid locally. As a rough guide a full days equipment rental is normally USD 30-50.
