Cozumel Dive Academy will send you the eLearning course when you sign up for your class. You will become familiar with basic diving principles and procedures during this training portion. For example, you'll learn the effects of pressure on your body, how to choose the right equipment, considerations for planning dives, and more. If you are already on Cozumel, you may complete the academic portion with one of our experienced PADI Instructors.
During this step, you'll dive into our "swimming pool" right from our dock and develop the basic scuba skills necessary to dive safely. You will learn how to set up your diving equipment, control your buoyancy, dive with a buddy, and have several other essential and fun skills. You will also take tour dives around the reefs, where you will be practicing the skills you have learned in preparation for your open water dives in Step Three.
