What we will do
The meeting point will be at the Bogatell promenade. We will have to arrive 15 minutes before 9 am.
We will dedicate the first part of the day to the more theoretical part of the course, with a 1.5 hour training session with our instructor. He will explain what each piece of equipment is for, how we can communicate in the water and the safest way to move under the surface, among other things.
Then it's time to put on our wetsuits and boots and get into the water. We will finish putting on the rest of the equipment on the jetty in the harbour reserved for the activity, while we go over the most important information. In the morning we will make the first dive to put into practice what we have learnt.
After a break for lunch and rest, from 14:00 to 16:00, we will resume the practical training with two more dives, during which we will be able to perfect our technique and ask the instructor any questions we may have. We will finish at 7pm, with our PADI certification and one more experience behind us.
The total duration of the activity is 8 hours, including the 1.5 hour training.
