PADI eLearning lets you access the material for one year, plus gain unlimited access to an online version of the course manual. This takes away from the need for a classroom and can be completed where you feel most comfortable, either while on vacation or before leaving home. You can also complete it here starting the day before the course.
Once you complete your eLearning you will have 2 mornings of confined water practice. Then, after confined water practice in the morning, you will go to do your open water dives in the afternoon. Over the two days, you will experience dives in some world-class dive sites including MUSA. MUSA (Underwater Museum of Art) is in the waters surrounding Cancun and Isla Mujeres and has over 500 life-size sculptures used to promote coral life. Within 3 days you can have your PADI Open Water Diver Course completed and start your adventures in diving.

Did my open water course at Pocna - professional and nice staff, great facilities, good equipment, and beautiful diving locations. I had a private instructor for the course! Highly recommended!
Excellent Dive Training

I had done a few hotel dives in the area and thought it was a good time to get PADI certification. I was assigned to Mario and was not disappointed. He is an excellent instructor; very friendly and informative.
Each and every dive was a great learning experience. He covered all of the aspects of each dive before we went out and then again on the boat before hitting the water. I never felt like anything was a surprise - which is great if you are in any way nervous about diving. I was a little amped up about clearing my mask underwater since I wear contacts, but he still made sure that I did it and was OK with everything each step of the way.
We visited two dive sites; MUSA and Manchones. MUSA, as an underwater museum, is not to my taste since it is completely artificial, but I do respect what they are trying to do in helping to rebuild the ecosystem. Manchones was a different story. This Felt more like some Jacques Cousteau-type diving. Huge schools of fish, barracuda, sea turtles, etc. It was everything I hoped diving would be. Mario made sure that I didn't miss a thing, pointing out all the interesting sea life as we dove.
I would 100% recommend Pocna and be sure to ask for Mario.
Really good experience with pocna Dive Center Isla Mujeres!

I highly recommend this place!
Open water dive

I decided to get my open water dive certification never have dived before and went with Poc.na dive center and it was the best choice I made. My instructor was Anthony. Anthony was so professional and knowledgeable, not was I able to pass, I felt really confident in my skills since I had such a great instructor making sure I knew exactly how to perform the diving skills. If you are thinking of diving in ISLA definitely go with them.
