Sea days emphasise comfort and supervision rather than maximum independence, with kit fitting and debriefs at Paseo Dimas Ortega 18 between sessions. Theory segments align with confined and open-water work so each dive reinforces what you studied the night before. 📍 Location Training shore entries and shallow reefs near the lighthouse provide safe space for skill circuits and supervised exploration dives over seagrass and rocky patches with seasonal fish life. Stepping-stone certification lets you holiday dive locally with a guide while you decide about full Open Water completion on a return trip. Site choice follows daily conditions so young or nervous students stay in forgiving water. ✅ Prerequisites Basic swimming ability and minimum age 10 apply under PADI youth rules. No prior scuba experience is required, though comfort floating and swimming in open water makes the course more enjoyable. Under-18 students need parental consent and appropriate supervision on training days. Complete medical forms honestly so instructors can adapt pacing if you need extra shallow water time before the open-water segments. ⭐ Why Choose Us Stepping-stone courses suit time-limited holidays while still delivering real open-water experience on Murcia's attractive reefs with rental kit and harbour-base logistics handled by our team. Progression staff can credit your training toward Open Water when you return for the remaining modules, often on the same Cabo de Palos sites you already know from Scuba Diver dives. ### Essential information _None._ ### What’s included PADI Scuba Diver certification on successful completion Knowledge development and instructor-led training dives Full scuba equipment hire during the course Confined or shallow water skill sessions Pre-dive briefings and debriefs ### What’s not included Transport to and from the meeting point Meals and drinks Personal travel insurance Open Water upgrade dives unless booked separately PADI materials fees paid to PADI when applicable ### Kit list _None._ ## FAQs ### Can I upgrade later? Yes. Scuba Diver credits toward Open Water when you return for the remaining modules, often on the same Cabo de Palos sites. Many students upgrade on a later trip once they have more holiday time. Your instructor can map which confined and open-water pieces still sit ahead so the second visit feels like a continuation, not a restart. Supervision stays inside the 12-metre Scuba Diver limit on both sea dives. ### How long is the course? Most students finish in about two days of knowledge development, confined skills, and two supervised open-water dives. Weather may spread sessions slightly, so keep a little flexibility around those two days. We still aim to keep water days close together so skills stay fresh inside the 12-metre supervised limit. Supervision stays inside the 12-metre Scuba Diver limit on both sea dives. ### How many dives are included? You complete confined training plus two open-water dives under instructor supervision within the Scuba Diver depth limit. Each dive reinforces prior skills rather than jumping to independent buddy diving. Sea days emphasise comfort and supervision, with debriefs at Paseo Dimas Ortega 18 between sessions. Supervision stays inside the 12-metre Scuba Diver limit on both sea dives. ### Is equipment included? Core training kit is provided for confined and open-water sessions. Many students later buy a personal mask for fit. Ask about rental for the open-water days if you are not travelling with your own set. Tanks and weights stay at the harbour, so you focus on skills rather than assembling a full kit bag. Supervision stays inside the 12-metre Scuba Diver limit on both sea dives. ### What is the minimum age? Students from age 10 can enrol under PADI youth rules, with parental consent for anyone under 18. Parental presence or consent is required for minors, and youth depth limits apply on both open-water dives. We keep briefing language simple and add shallow time if a young student needs another repetition before the sea dives. ### Where do we train? Confined and open-water sessions use calm Cabo de Palos entries and lighthouse-side reefs chosen for student comfort. Meet on time at Paseo Dimas Ortega 18 for transport to entries. Site choice follows daily conditions so young or nervous students stay in forgiving water inside the 12-metre limit. Supervision stays inside the 12-metre Scuba Diver limit on both sea dives. ### Is theory required? Yes. Knowledge development sits alongside confined skills so each water session matches what you have just studied. Complete assigned sections before each day when possible, whether you use digital materials or classroom review. Your instructor still checks understanding in person before the two supervised sea dives. Supervision stays inside the 12-metre Scuba Diver limit on both sea dives. ### Can Scuba Divers join guided fun dives? Yes, within the 12-metre limit and always with a PADI professional, which matches how this certification is designed. Your guide respects Scuba Diver rules on every dive, including youth limits. When you later complete Open Water, those remaining modules lift the independent buddy limit and open more local sites. Supervision stays inside the 12-metre Scuba Diver limit on both sea dives. ### How is this different from Open Water? Scuba Diver is a shorter pathway with two open-water dives and a 12-metre supervised limit, not full independent buddy certification. Open Water adds more confined and sea dives and qualifies you to buddy dive worldwide within training limits. This course suits a shorter holiday while still giving real open-water time on Murcia reefs. Supervision stays inside the 12-metre Scuba Diver limit on both sea dives. ### What should I bring? Bring swimwear, a towel, sun protection, and completed medical forms. Under-18 students need parental paperwork on day one. Drinking water and a change of clothes help after harbour rinse-down. We fit training kit on site, so you do not need to pack cylinders or weights for the two days. Supervision stays inside the 12-metre Scuba Diver limit on both sea dives. ## Media - **Primary image URL (resolved in app; may be absolute)**: https://adventuro.com/cdn-cgi/image/width=1200,format=auto,quality=90/https://wp.adventuro.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/09/IMG_3106-e1703591393127-2.jpg - **Gallery image count**: 3 ## Limitations - Availability, exact session times, and final price may depend on the live booking flow. - This Markdown is generated from the same catalog fields as the public HTML page at the canonical URL above.
