Open Water Diver Course

Leave Morocco as a certified diver

Multi-day course Tanja Marina Bay, Tangier From 7,898 MAD per person

The experience

The Open Water course is the qualification that unlocks the rest of your life underwater — dive anywhere in the world, to 18 metres, without an instructor holding your hand.

You will work through theory, confined-water skills and open-water dives with a patient instructor and small class sizes. Most guests fit it around the rest of their holiday over several days.

Equipment, tuition and certification processing are all included in the price you see.
