toward certification. The skills completed during this dive may
be credited toward certification
in the PADI
Scuba Diver Program and
the PADI
Open Water Diver Program (see our Scuba

of the confined water session. If
you decide
to

you
may finish either:
- here
at Coki Beach Dive Club. The price of this dive is credited
toward your certification price
- at
home. All you need to do is ask us for your student record,
which documents your achievement. When you are back home,
you can take it to any PADI Dive Center or Resort to
continue your course.

is COKI BEACH DIVE CLUB most popular dive. Find out why!
THE
CURRICULUM: First
Session: With the help of a flip chart, we will
explain to you a certain amount of theory and
we will make sure that you understand the important rules of diving. The
lesson will be short and concise, designed to inform you but not
to confuse you.
Second Session: After the theory and before starting the real 40-ft
dive, you will practice in near pool-like conditions along the shore.
You will hand feed the fish as you embark on your guided dive through
the coral reef. Your air gauge will be carefully monitored, to ensure
that you don't get low on air. The dive will last about 40 minutes,
depending on your comfort level. You will be surprised by how quickly
you will relax!
After completing your dive, you can stay and snorkel at Coki Beach,
the best snorkel spot on St. Thomas. If you don't have your own snorkel
gear with you, you can use Coki Beach Dive Club gear for free or buy
it at our Retail Shop.
