PADI Discover Scuba Diving

Never been diving? Or have you been, but never got the chance to get certified? This program is for you!

The PADI Discover Scuba Diving program will introduce you to the diving world. While not a certification course, this program will give you the chance to see if scuba diving might be for you!

The DSD program includes 20 minutes of online theory (eLearning), and some entry-level instruction. Then you will don your dive gear to practice a few skills in shallow water. Once you are comfortable, you will get to go on a real dive! Blow you first bubbles underwater with an instructor, no deeper than 12m/40ft, relax, and enjoy the dive and the amazing sea life we have in Huatulco!

PADI Open Water Diver

Want to learn to scuba dive?

Our PADI Open Water Diver course will teach you, in 4 days, all you need to know to dive independently with your dive buddy to a maximum depth of 18m/60ft. 

This course consists of an online theory session (eLearning), which is completed independently, so you can complete it before coming down to Huatulco (saving you classroom time during your vacation)! Once in Huatulco you will complete five shallow water training modules (confined water) and four training dives in the ocean (open water).

Have you already taken the theory sessions and confined water training with your local dive shop?  No problem! Choose Hurricane Divers for your PADI Open Water Referral and complete your 4 open water dives with us!

We will give detailed briefings before each of the five adventure dives, and then off you will go to learn and experience new underwater skills!

PADI Rescue Diver

The PADI Rescue Diver course is well known to be a challenging diving course, but also the most rewarding!

Over 3 days, after completing your PADI Rescue Diver eLearning, you will learn to assess, prevent, and manage diving emergencies, give assistance from shore or a boat and in water rescue techniques. This course will not only give you the tools to help and provide assistance to others, but will make you a more focused, relaxed and competent diver as you practice all these techniques until they become second nature.
