3-day Padi Open Water Diving Course In Dubai

Great experience with Nemo Diving Center! The team was professional, friendly, and very accommodating from start to finish. Safety was taken seriously, but they still made the dives fun and relaxed. They handled everything smoothly, so all I had to worry about was not embarrassing myself underwater. 😄 Highly recommended, and I'll definitely be diving with them again!

From start to finish an amazing experience, every instructor was knowledgeable, helpful and supportive. I have learned so much and became comfortable despite me panicking the first day in the pool. Viktoriia calmed me down, thanks to her I did not give up and carried on with the course. The place feels like home and I can’t recommend them enough ❤️

My experience at Nemo Diving Center was fantastic. I did my PADI scuba diving course with Hossam and I couldn’t have asked for a better instructor. He’s super patient, professional, and his passion for diving really shows. After my first session I was nervous, overwhelmed, and honestly didn’t want to continue because I thought I wouldn’t be able to do it. But, with Hossam’s encouragement and guidance, I was able to keep going and complete my certification. He simplified the course content while still covering everything in detail and adapting to a speed I was comfortable with. Hossam helped me overcome my fears and gain confidence -which is huge! Faris is also an amazing. He is so patient, knowledgeable and supportive. His love for diving really shines through. The entire team is friendly and professional. I would highly recommend Nemo Diving Center and I’m sure I’ll see you guys for more training soon. Thank you!☺️

Had an absolutely amazing experience with Nemo Diving Center. We got our Open Water certification and found the team extremely supportive and professional. I had the pleasure to dive with Ahmed and Faris, and I cannot thank them enough for the support throughout the process. A big thank you to Hossam as well for his encouragement ! I will definitely see you again for other dives and courses.

Nemo is an amazing place and team,Ahmed Ali is super. Full service and support all the time, Willing to help and support all the way Thanks team

I had a great time doing the Open water diving course with Faris to get my diving certificate. I can highly recommend it..

I recently completed my Open Water Course with Nemo Diving Centre, and it was a brilliant experience! The instructors were so knowledgeable and patient, making sure I understood everything every step of the way. They were also willing to go the extra mile to ensure I felt confident and comfortable, which made such a difference as a beginner. Everything was so well organised, from the training sessions to the dives. If you’re thinking about getting into diving, I can’t recommend Nemo Diving Centre enough.

I had an amazing time with Yehya! He was extremely friendly and experienced! He explained everything in detail and was so sure about and his teaching was perfect

I did open water diving in Nemo Diving centre, Amr and Karim were really good at explaining everything from pool dives to open water dives. I highly recommend Nemo for anyone who wants to have great learning experience with kind instructors. I also loved the prompt replies when contacted in their number.

I went with Lee for diving classes . It was so inspiring and very professional instructor .i already registered my daughter to get more experience and add it to her CV for university

It was a fairly difficult choice to choose the dive centre for the course, But choosing Nemo Diving centre Dubai was a great decision. Right from Day 1 all the instructors were very patient in making the course very comfortable and not rushing into finishing it, The knowledege of the instructors is commendable and they know what they are doing very well, Special mention to Kareem who is extremely patient and wants you to be perfect in what you do and will take an extra effort to make you better in your flaws. Lastly i would highly recommend Nemo for anyone who is looking to start Diving, this is the best place you can start in Dubai. Cant wait to explore more with Nemo, Cheers!

I recently completed my PADI Open Water certification at Nemo Diving Centre, and it was an exceptional experience from start to finish. The instructors were not only highly professional but also infused the training with a sense of fun and adventure. Their patience was remarkable, ensuring that I felt comfortable and confident underwater. I couldn't have asked for a better team to guide me through this journey. Nemo Diving Centre truly exceeded my expectations, and I highly recommend it to anyone looking to explore the underwater world.

Great adventure! That is where I start. Location: On Palm Jumeirah next to the pool of the Azure Residence. Easy to walk to from the Nakheel Mall. Price: Cheaper than in Italy. Their prices for the dives are listed on their website and they are accurate. Staff: GREAT!! While all were friendly and helpful, I would like to give a shout out to Karim, Amr, and as I spoke to them not to forget our first instructor Galil (spelling). Galil was extremely easy to learn from and gave very clear instructions. Karim was awesome and extremely friendly. Amr took me on my final two dives and in my opinion the most important ones especially with the controlled emergency ascent. All of the staff spoke english. While I am not sure how many languages each staff member speaks, Karim speaks Italian, English, Arabic, and he did speak some german and spanish. This being said, I am sure they can accomodate many different backgrounds to provide the best training and experience possible. Experience: As I am getting older, I figured it was a good time to get scuba certified. I am not afraid of much, but I have a healthy "respect" of being eaten by a shark lol. needless to say...... none appeared lol. I will say the water was not as clear as I was thinking it would be, but that is in part due to my kicking up dirt from the sea floor. had to learn breath control. I saw barracudas, a stone fish, angel fish, and a sting ray. The experience was awesome overall. My trip took place over 4 days (2-4 March and 8 March) Lessons Learned: BIG ONE!!!!! Dont touch the rocks or coral without gloves lol. nothing like a nice cut on your finger when you get out of the water and it burns lol. but not too bad. How you breath controls your bouyancy. took me all four days to figure that out even after being told. Recommendaion: I definitely recommend visiting the Nemo Dive Center. When I return to Dubai, I will make a visit there for another dive! Good luck to the whole team there! See you soon. Respectfully, Q

I got my open water certificate through Nemo Diving Center in Dubai, UAE. Highly recommend! Friendly, patient staff who take the course serious! I also just had a lot of fun :)

DO NOT TRUST THIS BUSINESS - AVOID BOOKING! I have booked with Nemo Diving Center months ago and it VERY CLEARLY states a free cancellation policy. I have asked to cancel 4 times due to inability to travel/illness, they keep on avoiding the question until saying that they do not offer refunds even though this is promised when booking this course. Additionally, when asking about flying after diving, they are ignoring the safety policies in place to avoid catching DCS which is extremely concerning - why disregard safety measures being taught in the e-learning? I am currently getting my lawyer involved which is an absolute shame as this could have been avoided if they simply would have kept their word with the cancellation policy. Extremely disappointed, hope that they will come to their senses and just refund as they promised.

Really friendly team and excellent combined facility of great pool literally outside the shop door and beach diving just out of the back door ! Situated on the Palm complex at Jumeira. Young trainers are v experienced and patient and fun …. And keen to really teach you the important safety and scuba tips for the future as well as obviously to get you through the actual certificate

Fantastic instructors. They were very patient and helpful. I had a wonderful experience over 4 days.

The staff members at Nemo were very friendly and welcoming. Being a traveller (from Australia), little things like hospitality and a small smile matters to me to make me feel comfortable. My trainer Abdel was patient and helped me how to better understand the skills I was doing. Nemo also accommodated my travel needs, allowing me to ensure I got my open water certification within a limited time I had.

The teacher were amazing so kind and helpful and the staff as well. It was a wonderful overall experience.

Had an amazing time getting PADI open water diver certification with Nemo team. The instructors are fun & friendly, will make you feel comfortable in case you're nervous. Special thanks to Hassan & Ahmed for being highly patient with us throughout the course and trained us until we were 100% comfortable with open water diver skills. Site Pros: Prime and accessible location Diving Site Cons: Visibility underwater is not that great in Dubai However if earning scuba diving skills is the goal- this is the place

recently obtained my PADI Open Water Diver certificate at Nemo. Hassan’s patience and encouragement helped build my confidence, transforming my initial fear into excitement. The staff exhibited enthusiasm and warmth from the moment I arrived. Great experience! See you soon underwater :)

Best team of instructors in Dubai 😎 thank you for your professionalism, empathy and smile! See you soon underwater 🤙

It was a great time at Nemo diving center. The instructors were Amazing ( Mustafa , Gala and Hassan ) . Looking forward to Advanced Open water .

I booked this on a recommendation from a friend. From the minute I arrived to the minute I qualified and left, the support and expertise demonstrated by the team was fantastic. Excellent value for money and confident friendly tutors were the very best! Hassan and Galal were so patient, kind, supportive but also knowledgeable and able to give advice to enable improvement. Fantastic!! Would highly recommend!!! Onto advanced open water diver next for me - will certainly book with these guys!

Very nice experience and appreciate with instructor to teach. The instructor has taught us very patient and very professional. Thanks for my instructor again.

Wonderful place to learn scuba diving. Practice sessions, online learning perfectly crafted.👌Continuous monitoring and personalized guidance. Instructors make the teaching experience comfortable and water-fear free. The pool is very clean & sea diving was at a exotic locale. Learning scuba diving at Nemo's is the right place to take a step to view the underwater magnificence.

I got my scuba diving license from Nemo, the coaches were fantastic. They took their time to teach and were very patient. Really enjoyed it and looking forward to dive now!

Amazing center. All the instructors are great and super friendly. The team also keeps organizing trips which are helpful

Very good instructors, really helpful and made the lessons fun. Equipment was very clean, easy to use and it is a very friends and family friendly place

It was a very unique experience . The instructors were very friendly and nice and made the experince more enjoyable. I would recommend anyone and everyone to come try this regardless of experience

My open water diving course was very good and I had a fun time learning all the skills needed at this level. The staff were really good, professional, and friendly. Would recommend to anyone who wants to learn diving in Dubai.

I was extremely impressed by all staff at Nemo Diving Centre. My instructor, Mostafa was very helpful and patience with my friend and I. My friend was evidently a little more nervous under the water in the beginning but the team helped put her mind at ease and were very patient and supportive. Would definitely recommend to a friend.

Super great experience at the Nemo Diving Center! I did the Open Water Course with no scuba diving experience. The instructors were awesome and supported in every situation. Would recommend to everyone who is interested in diving!

All the crew are amazing and well prepared to share their knowledge. It was amazing to get my license with them 🤙

Friendly staff , professional , multi kind of activities & trips and reasonable prices .. strongly recommend NEMO DIVING CENTER for diving & snorkeling activities Special thanks for Instructors Hossam Tarek & Ahmed in Dubai team and all the staff there who were super helpful in all the stages of the course..

They are awesome people! They care, walk with you step by step, make sure you are comfortable, and want to see you succeed. Even walking in as a beginner, they make you feel like you belong. Highly recommend!

An amazing experience! The course was fun and exciting, I learnt a lot from Galal and his patience and calmness made the process very comfortable. I would definitely recommend it!

Very good experience with nemo open water diving. 4 days diving with our instructor Ahmed, very professional and kind with us. It was so great, he made a picture of us under the sea when diving. We recomand Nemo diving center. We hope to come back again from France for open water advanced diving and dive with Ahmed. Thanks to all the Nemo's team.

First at all, it is a 4 days course and not 3 days and this is good so to train all important things under water and important to know if you do this certificate during your vacation in Dubai. The whole Nemo staff is just great. A young team so polite, helpful, funny and competent as you could wish for. Two persons I have to highlight two persons in particular: Hossam, who is the owner: funny as hell and so interesting to speak with him before my trainings started and best diver in the world. And of course Galal, my trainer. He looks most times if he’s in a bad mood but actually I couldn’t wish for a better trainer. He was more than helpful and he trained us until we knew how to make our moves correctly and if you gave him a Bounty chocolate bar you could see him even smiling 😉. Coming to the end of my review, it was the best decision to make my open water certificate with Nemo and I highly recommend it for everyone. If I will make my advanced open diver, for sure I will make it with them again.

Nemo dive center has an amazing team!It well maintained and hygienic. I did my open water course with them .Hassan & Galal ,my instructors were simply superb.I think if your new to diving ,its very important to find instructors that have patience and also have an innate ability to calm you down,as that is very important when you dive.More important ,they prioritize safety over anything else, unlike other centers i have been to.Though the water in Dubai is little hazy ,i think this center is the perfect place for you learn diving.Cheers !!

The entire experience, team, equipment and professionalism was top notch. Very chilled out but worked you hard to achieve the objectives required.

I completed my Open Water Diving Certificate with Nemo Diving Center and can to 100% recommend it. Very enjoyable atmosphere, the instructor Hassan Ashmawy does a fantastic job in letting you feel comfortable and pleasant under water, great organisation, fast replies, easy booking procedure (no "queue"). Definitely to recommend!

We had a great experience at Nemo diving center doing the open water certification course. Our instructor Hasan was very kind and explained everything patiently and with great care. We felt like we were in good hands and had fun diving. Unfortunately visibility at The Palm is not great, but the center offered a complimentary discount on a diving trip to Fujairah as well.

Fantastic few days learning to dive with the Nemo Diving Centre with some very experienced instructors (especially Hasan) who were incredibly patient and attentive throughout. I thoroughly enjoyed learning new skills as the instructors focused on safety and made it a very comfortable and reassuring but fun few days. I joined the course on my own and found others that were there by themselves, so great if you are travelling solo or with others. You very quickly become a close knit group as you have to buddy up throughout the course. If anyone is thinking of completing the PADI open water diving course in Dubai I would highly recommend to is place.

Best diving center in Dubai. The staff is very friendly and helpful. We had a wonderful time during our OWD education. At first with Ahmed and then with Hassan. They are great teachers and amazing people.

I took my 10 year old daughter to certify as a Junior Open Water diver. The facilities were first rate and the staff welcoming, competent and engaging throughout. Highly recommended.

I had 2 weeks off and decided to do my open water with Nemo. I really loved the experience with the team as they really made me feel like I was family more than just a customer. The instructors are amazing, always shared their insight and were just all around great. After finishing my open water I decided immediately that I will continue onto my advanced open water license and completed that within two weeks of completing my open water. Through the advanced open water I got to meet the extended Nemo family in Fujairah which included regular divers and just as amazing instructors and guides. I will continue my diving experience with Nemo and recommend anyone else considering to do their diving experience with the Nemo team. Thank you to everyone in Nemo!

Excellent location all you need is your towel suncream change if clothes Nemo provide everything else

Excellent experience, all personal and instructors were highly professional. Keep help you all the time, providing best guidance and do more fun the experience. If you can do Advance course don’t hesitate because Night diving is incredible and the most amazing experience. Best part you can go to fujaira for fun, instructors there, are highly professional and they are all the time checking on you. Following always the rules and that is the best part to be confident and enjoy more this journey
