Open Water Lake Certification Dives

Lake certification dives are held over a weekend (Saturday & Sunday morning) twice monthly for students taking our Open Water Diver (OWD) classes.  Times vary each month - so pay close attention to our calendar for the time of your lake dives.  You must attend both the Saturday and Sunday session in order to be certified.

While you can schedule your certification weekend anytime, you must complete your academic and pool sessions prior, and your OWD instructor must have given you a passing grade.

Sign-up for an OWD certification weekend here without any additional class fee.  If you do not show up for the certification dives you've scheduled, you will have to pay a fee to reschedule.

Important points to prepare for your certification dive weekend:

• You must pick up your scuba gear, wetsuit, weights, and air cylinders (2) from the Arizona Dive Center the Friday prior to your weekend dives.  The cost of this was included in your initial OWD course fee.
• You must return all equipment the Sunday afternoon after your last session.
• You will receive your course certification, including with digital and wallet credentials after successful completion of your certification dives.
• You should arrive 30 minutes prior to when the session begins to park, carry gear to the shore, suit-up, and do a briefing with your dive buddy.
• The location of our certification dives at Lake Pleasant is the end of Sunset Ridge Road.  On your GPS device type in "Sunset Ridge Rd, Morristown, AZ" for the exact location.
