PADI open water

Become a Diver

Do you want to learn to dive in one of the most beautiful underwater worlds? Then you have come to the right place at “About Jackie Fine Diving” dive center. 

We teach you to dive quietly, in a relaxed atmosphere, under the clear blue waters of Curaçao. Because almost all dive sites on Curaçao are easily accessible from the beach, the island is the ideal place for novice divers to obtain a diving license.

The PADI Open Water scuba certification is the first scuba certification you can earn as a diver. One of our trained PADI instructors will teach you how to dive in a relaxed and enjoyable learning environment. 

During this course you will learn all the basics of diving: basic diving skills, what diving gear you need and how to dive with a buddy. The course consists of 40% theory and 60% practice, in total you will make 5 dives. At the end of this course you will have the basic skills and knowledge needed to dive anywhere in the world. 

The PADI course lasts an average of 3 days, depending on your own pace. There is also the option to complete all of PADI’s online e-learning at home. Then you already have the exam in your pocket and you only come to us for practice.

At dive center “About Jackie Fine Diving”, we think it is important to take the time for new divers and to teach everyone to dive in a responsible and enjoyable way. 

With us you will receive an extensive VIP treatment, because we also like to pamper you in the culinary field. All our course days are fully catered, with homemade food and drinks.

PADI advance

Become an expert

Do you already have your Padi Open Water, and you want to improve your experience as a diver? Then choose the advance open water dive course. During this course you will gain even more experience, as you will learn to increase your diving skills with additional tools. 

You will make 5 different dives under supervision. Of these, there will be 2 mandatory dives: 1 deep dive and 1 navigation dive. You can compose the other 3 dives yourself. You can choose from our specialties such as: a luxury boat dive, night dive, wreck dives, drift dives, fish identification dive or a buoyancy dive.

During this course one frequently decides to obtain the nitrox license. This is something we definitely recommend because it allows you to extend the length of your dive. 

If you dive with compressed air on a wreck at 30 meters, you can stay under water for a maximum of 17 minutes at a depth of 30 meters. However, with a nitrox tank, you can extend your dive by 11 minutes and stay under water for up to 28 minutes at a depth of 30 meters.

At “About Jackie Fine Diving” we think it is important to take to time with all divers to teach them responsibly so that everyone can have fun and enjoy themselves underwater. 

With us you will receive an extensive VIP treatment, because we also like to pamper you in the culinary field. All our course days are fully catered for with homemade food and drinks. So you don’t have to think about anything other than getting your padi!

As with the “Open Water” course, you will definitely be pampered! With delicious food and drinks included in your special day, you will only have to think about getting your PADI Advanced certificate!
