Do You Want a Personal Scuba Diving Course?

It can be yours with One on One personal Instruction, all the benefits and bonuses that are included with the Open Water Course are yours, as well as including a weekend at Tweed Heads for just
$2,750

This course includes 2 boat trips (4 boat dives) rather than the standard single boat trip (2 boat dives) that are part of the normal Open Water Course.

Hence there are a total of 6 Open Water dives with Personal Open Water Scuba Diving Course.

Dive Medical -  In Australia, it is mandatory for every Open Water Scube student to have a dive medical done to Australian Standard AS4005.1.

It is strongly recommended that you get your Dive Medical  before you enrol for your course.  If you should leave it till later and then fail the medical, you have our heartfelt sympathy, however within 1 week of the course start date, there will be a $100.00 administration fee and once the course has started, there can be no refund

Classroom And Theory - This is where you really learn about diving! Like all adventure sports there are risks involved and here we start to narrow the risks down by learning more about what you're going to enjoy.


Pool or Confined Water - Here you will get to use the equipment and practice certain skills essential for scuba diving and snorkelling. Therefore, when we go into the ocean, your diving will be more enjoyable and safer.


Open Water - This is when it all comes together, and you really start to enjoy the world of scuba diving. The AllWays Diving Team will go over what you have learnt in the theory sessions and in the pool, then assist you to put it all together so that you can go and have some fun!

The course usually runs over a four to five day period. (Other arrangements may be catered for) At the completion of the course, you will have an International certification that will allow you to dive anywhere in the world in similar conditions to those under which you were trained.
