1.Open Water Diver 2-Day PADI Course in Playa del Carmen

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 16 reviews · 2 days (approx.) · from $299Our pick

Meet Scuba Libre in central Playa del Carmen for PADI theory, two mornings of pool practice, and four afternoon ocean sessions by boat. Instructor Sam has guided students through changing conditions, and groups are capped at eight. Equipment, a dive computer, logbook, and certification are included, while digital materials cost extra.
