What to expect

The PADI Scuba Diver Course is the perfect option for travelers who want to become certified divers but are short on vacation time. This private course begins with convenient PADI eLearning, allowing you to complete the theory before arrival. Once you’re here, your instructor will review the key concepts with you and prepare you for an exciting day in the water.

Training starts with a relaxed morning confined water session where you’ll practice essential scuba skills in shallow water with your instructor. Cabo Private Guide keeps this course private & with a maximum instructor ratio of just 1 per 3 students, ensuring plenty of individual attention and support throughout the day.

In the afternoon, it’s time for the real adventure — two ocean dives in the Bay! Only 5 minutes by boat. You’ll put your new skills into practice while exploring Cabo’s famous underwater landscapes & marine life. Expect tropical fish, sea stars, and the unforgettable experience of breathing underwater in the Sea of Cortez. Upon completion, you’ll earn the internationally recognized PADI Scuba Diver certification, allowing you to dive worldwide under the supervision of a PADI Professional.
