A couple wants to explore the underwater world without scuba gear. What course would you recommend for them and their daughter?

  1. PADI Open Water Diver Course

  2. PADI Discover Scuba Diving

  3. PADI Skin Diver Course

  4. PADI Adventure Diver Course

The correct answer is: PADI Skin Diver Course

The recommended course for a couple and their daughter who want to explore the underwater world without scuba gear is the PADI Skin Diver Course. This course focuses on surface-oriented snorkeling techniques and teaches participants how to use a mask, snorkel, and fins effectively. It emphasizes breath-hold techniques and comfort in the water, allowing individuals to experience the underwater environment while remaining at the surface. The Skin Diver Course is particularly suitable for families or individuals who may not want to undergo the more extensive training involved in scuba diving, such as the PADI Open Water Diver Course or Discover Scuba Diving, which both involve the use of tanks and require more in-depth training on safety protocols. Through the Skin Diver Course, participants gain an understanding of skin diving practices, safety measures, and how to appreciate marine life without the complexities of scuba gear.
