We offer the following three (3) options to conduct your training:

1. INDIVIDUAL TRAINING

This option gives you the control to determine the specific dates to conduct the aquatic sessions; always considering the weather and staff availability.  It is the preferred mode because of the small group logistics allowing more individual quality training with a maximum of 5 participants.  The full required training can be done in either two (2) or three (3) days, typically running from 8am until 2pm.  Our recommendation is the 3-day program to separate the confined water from the open water sessions, which can be done in our heated pool in Guaynabo.  However, the 2-day program is typically the most popular among our clients for scheduling logistics. Your flexibility is greatfully appreciated in order to coordinate accordingly.

2. PRIVATE TRAINING

This is a unique service that we are happy to offer for exclusive private training. This allows our customers to receive a higher level of training and personalized attention scheduling the aquatic sessions at their best convenience.  For private training, the rate is simply double of the Individual Training mode and no other participants may join the group aside from your party.

This option may be required to complete the training if no other participant signs up for your specific date, or reschedule at a more convenient time. Your flexibility is greatfully appreciated in order to coordinate accordingly.

If you would like to book this exclusive service, kindly click here to coordinate.

3. GROUP TRAINING

As with the group events, this training modality is available with a 50% discount from the regular Individual Training mode, when a group of fifteen (15) or more friends and family participants is formed.  This training mode is coordinated with a minimum of two (2) PADI Professionals to assure safety and can be provided in different dive sites, again subject to weather and staff availability.  Beginning with an orientation meeting, your PADI Instructor will discuss the dive theory review and logistics to provide an amazing experience for your group.

Hey, who doesn’t love a bargain?  We are happy to offer the following discounts on all tours and trainings to our customers:

• $25 off per person when booking for 2+ participants
• 50% off for groups of 15+ participants (perfect for birthdays,  special celebrations, and corporate events)
• $10 off when bringing your full gear
• $10 off for Copamarina guests @ GuánicAmazing
