PADI Open Water Diver certification is composed of a tested educational component followed by a series of confined dives, such as in a swimming pool, and finally, a series of four open water dives to a maximum depth of 60 feet.\u00a0 Certification is open to swimmers who are 10 years and older\u00a0 that are in good physical health.\u00a0 Completing the certification process usually takes 3-4 days or a total of 25 to 30 hours.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

What Are The Advantages Of Getting PADI Certified In Roatan?<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

There are actually quite a few advantages to completing your PADI certification in Roatan.\u00a0<\/p>

\u00a0<\/p>

First of all, Honduras is known for having some of the cheapest scuba diving rates in the world.\u00a0 Depending on where you live, you may realize significant savings by completing the course in Roatan.\u00a0<\/p>

\u00a0<\/p>

Secondly, diving in Roatan will guarantee that your open water dives are done in warm, crystal clear water.\u00a0 Compared to some of the cold and murky conditions found during lake and quarry diving courses in colder climates, this can be the difference between a lifelong love affair or being put off from ever diving again.<\/p>

\u00a0<\/p>

You might also consider the fact that completing the PADI course in Roatan will immediately allow you to scuba dive the second largest barrier reef system in the world.\u00a0 You\u2019ll likely experience things off the coast of Roatan that you\u2019ll never find anywhere else in the world.\u00a0 Being free to explore the Mesoamerican Barrier Reef is a pretty amazing graduation present.<\/p>

\u00a0<\/p>

And finally, you can combine your PADI certification with a great holiday on a warm and inviting tropical island in the Caribbean Sea.\u00a0 Rather than simply idling your vacation time away, you can actually accomplish something and end up with the ultimate souvenir.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

There are also some reasons why you might not want to spend your time in Roatan getting PADI certified.<\/p>

\u00a0<\/p>

Depending on how long you\u2019re staying in Roatan, a PADI certification course may take up a lot of your time and make it seem like not much of a vacation at all.\u00a0 You should also remember that you won\u2019t be able to fly for at least 18 hours after your last dive.\u00a0 Packing PADI certification into a weeklong vacation may be too much of an ask.<\/p>

\u00a0<\/p>

The classroom-based Knowledge Development part of the certification, which can take eight hours or more, is followed by a final exam which you\u2019ll need to study for.\u00a0 You may find it difficult to study while you\u2019re on a tropical vacation.\u00a0 Self-discipline will be the key here.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

Can You Get PADI Certified at Home and In Roatan?<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

An option that may make the certification process easier and more enjoyable for you is to employ the referral system which can allow you to complete the knowledge and\/or contained dives at home while completing the open water dives in Roatan.\u00a0 This allows you to split the PADI certification process up into shorter components and complete them where it\u2019s more comfortable and convenient for you.\u00a0 And in the end, you\u2019ll still be able to reward yourself with a graduation present of diving the Mesoamerican Barrier Reef!
