  • Any extra fees?

    • In QLD there's a diving medical you need to past. I don't remember what it cost. The other hidden costs included the purchase of a knife and a flag.

      It might not be the same in NSW.

      • a knife and a flag?
        the knife might be reasonable but what's with the flag?

        • +1

          Did my open water PADI back in uni(-10yrs ago) and had to do a special health check before allowed to take the course. Some health conditions can restrict diver's ability and safety, such epilepsy and asthma(I thnink). Only certain GPs can do the dive health check.

          Flag = dive sausage…? A sausage is a plastic tube that is used when the diver is at the surface to indicate the diver's position to the dive boat, reducing the risk of losing contact when air, light or sea conditions decrease the visibility of the divers from the boat = aka emergency buoy.

          Which then you can use the sausage to feed the skipper as a fee for rescuing you… :p

      • dive medical should be less than $100

  • Taken directly from the Sydney Underworld website:

    What will it cost me?

    Sydney Underworld offers free training from Learn to dive (open water) to Dive Master (or equivalent) Level. you will never pay for your instructor, your only costs will be based on cost recovery (what it costs us), for external fees and charges we have no control over.

    • Dive certification card approx $45 (we have no control over this, as it is a fee charged by the certification body to provide International recognised dive card)
    • You are responsible for costs of transport to training venues

    So what exactly are the external costs if anyone knows?
    What does this $130 package actually get you?

      So presumably it's all inclusive.

      Can't track down details on the mask and snorkel but the fins appear to be worth about $120 alone

      • Also includes the gear hire (wet suit, BCD, weights, tank) for your open water lesson.

  • This sounds like a good deal, when I did my PADI open water diver course years ago I think it was a bit over $300.

    Keep in mind that if you don't dive you will need to do a refresher course every year or so (can't recall how often).

    • +1

      The refresher course is optional, once you get the cert it's for life.

  • yeah it's a pretty good damn deal i have to say. but unfortunately am located in Adelaide :(

  • Thats a great deal. I paid a lot more when I got my certification and I didn't even get the mask/snorkel/fins. Just bought this for my wife

  • I just bought a second one because even if you have Open Water certification, you can use the voucher for the other dives like deep dive and shark dive!

  • damnit, im looking to do something like this and head to qld next month too (from vic)would be great to be there… :D

  • It says its done through Sydney underworld and they do it for free anyway. So all you're doing is buying a mask and flippers.
    Thanks though, might go direct.

  • fark.. this deal is sweet ..

    wish Melb Aquarium would do this

  • sweet deal, already have my advanced padi, will defo go for the shark dives though!

  • -1

    i am just shocked at how many online coupon sites there are

    top of my head i can list
    - ouffer
    - offerme
    - scoopon
    - scoop of the day
    - living social (not open yet)

    now this one!?

    can anyone add more?

    • yep, seems to be the latest fad.

      I guess sale-a-day websites are becomming passe :)

    • interesting how they all look the same :P

  • any deals for accredited open water divers?

  • Does anyone know anything about Sydney Underworld? I have my OW, but I wouldn't mind getting my advanced cert

  • Yes you can use it on their other courses. Since OW is free anyway, it might be better to get your OW without this and then use this voucher for their other dives eg the shark dive is $180 without flippers/mask/snorkel/boots

    • The shark dive is $87 now apparently (off-peak). Plus $17 for double tank and $50 for other gear

  • sweet been planning to get ow. been snorkling at great barrier reef and hawaii. good stuff.
