Dear Sirs,

I m planning to take the padi open water course alone in july , likely early in Perhentian. I m considering bayu dive resort or universal with stay in cozy. You guys advices will be highly appreciated. thanks.

thanks, seahorse provide accomodation too or chalets is aroudn there please?

thanks, i hv been trying to get into diving for years, but due to work, it has been set aside.
mide is good idea, but i think better to do it now rather to delay further.
perhentian is considered as i have never been there.
what is the advantages of doing confined water/theroy and open water separately besides the reason of more relaxing ?

Are you going alone or you are going with friends??

If you doing your confine/course here

Advantage of Taking OW in the city
- You might not have to pay for single occupancy (if you are alone)
- You have plenty of time to read/study/exam
- You don't need to pay more for extra dive eg : confined lesson (so air buffet)
- You don't have to do your swimming test in open sea (some might be rough)
- You will feel more comfortable water before you heading to island (so safety first)
- You will learn more stuff here. (instead of compact everything within 4 days)
- You can always buy/get anything you think you need (if you dont feel comfortable with their eq)
- You will always entitle to special discount price for trips/equipment

can you recommend any1 that doing this with perhentian as the open water course. ( i only came across those with tioman as the open water place). thx
