Travellers who want to leave the trip with a worldwide PADI card. The Open Water cert you earn here works everywhere — Red Sea, Indonesia, Mexico, the Andamans. And Kadmat is one of the easiest places in the country to earn it: warm water, long bottom-time, the house reef in your backyard.
Course structure with built-in fun dives.
Arrival on Kadmat
Fly in to Agatti, transfer to Kadmat (boat / hopper). Welcome briefing at the dive school. Course paperwork, medical, e-learning intro.
Confined water + theory
Classroom modules 1–2, swim test, confined-water skill sets one and two in the shallow lagoon.
Confined water + open water 1 & 2
Final skills in confined water, then your first two real open-water dives on Kadmat’s house reef.
Open water 3 & 4 — certified
Two final qualifying dives, exam, log-book signing. By dinner you’re a certified Open Water Diver.
Fun dive day
Two boat dives at premium Kadmat sites. Briefings, surface intervals, no skills — just diving.
