The PADI Scuba Diver Course at Jetty Dive Centre in Coffs Harbour is a two-day program plus self-study, designed as a restricted entry level certification for those new to scuba diving. This course allows participants to dive to a maximum depth of twelve meters under the direct supervision of a certified instructor or divemaster. The program combines theoretical learning through PADI e-learning, confined water training in a pool, and two open water boat dives at the Solitary Islands Marine Park. Participants gain essential scuba skills, learn safety procedures, and develop confidence in the water, all within a structured and supportive environment. Small group training ensures personalized attention and guidance from experienced instructors, making the learning experience both effective and enjoyable.

The course includes full equipment hire for the ocean dives, and e-learning access is available in your personal PADI library for life. By default, the course is scheduled over two consecutive days, but the second day can be rescheduled if necessary by contacting the dive center after booking. Participants must be able to swim 200 meters or snorkel 300 meters and stay afloat or tread water for ten minutes. A medical assessment is required to ensure participants are fit for diving, and pregnant individuals are not permitted to dive. This program provides a safe and engaging introduction to scuba diving, allowing learners to explore the underwater world with confidence and supervision while gaining an internationally recognized certification.

I had an absolutely fantastic weekend doing my orientation dive (and fun dives) with Ocean Divers at Killary Fjord! From the moment I arrived every member of staff and all the other divers were incredibly welcoming, friendly and helpful. The atmosphere was supportive and relaxed, making it easy to feel comfortable even if you’re just starting out like me (10 dives previously). There were a lot of divers, but each in small groups with their own dive master or dive instructor and grouped together in the OW/AOW courses or fun dives. While I had already done my OW elsewhere, I’ll definitely be doing the advanced course and further dives with these guys as the level of dedication and commitment that goes into making their students be successful divers is visible. Bring a bit of patience for the initial response period if you reach out during a very busy time - it‘s hard to respond when you’re always in the water 😄 but I honestly can’t recommend them enough if you’re looking to become a good diver and explore Irelands underwater world with a genuinely lovely group of people.

I’m doing the drysuit diver course with Oceandivers at the moment. I was having trouble getting my buoyancy right, so had six pool sessions to get it right at no extra charge!! What a crew Oceandivers have. There was no pressure, just take your time and get it right. Dan is always on hand to help you out and the rest of the lads are so helpful. I had my first sea dive for the buoyancy certification today off Dalkey island. It was fantastic!! The extra lessons really paid off. I cannot recommend the Oceandivers crew highly enough. It is and has been a pleasure working with Oceandivers to get my drysuit certification. Can’t wait to get back in the water with the crew!!

Did my Open Water course with Ocean Divers and couldn’t have asked for a better experience – especially on the trip out to Killary Harbour. Alan and Dan are absolute legends. They keep things calm, clear, and enjoyable from start to finish, and they’ve got a brilliant way of building your confidence without overcomplicating anything. Killary was a cracking spot to dive, and the lads made sure everyone got the most out of it, no matter their level. The whole vibe was relaxed but totally professional – you always felt in safe hands. Already looking forward to coming back for my Advanced course. If you’re thinking of giving diving a go, just book it with these lads. You won’t regret it.

Amazing experience on my Open Water Diving Course with Oceandivers Ireland! The instructors are all professional, patient, and safety-focused. Training was well-structured, with great dive sites and top-notch equipment. Richard was my instructor and had so much patience with us all while also ensuring we had fun too! Highly recommend. Can’t wait to return! 🌊🤿
