Earn your global PADI Certification in Guatemala, while exploring the iconic waters of Lake Atitlan. 

Travel to Santa Cruz on the edge of Lake Atitlan, only a 15-minute boat ride from Panajachel. An untraditional destination for PADI Open Water Diving certification, Lake Atitlan offers a unique high-altitude dive experience into the volcanic crater of Lake Atitlan. Divers touch hot mud along the lake’s volcanic fault lines; view the underwater volcanic rock formations and swim-throughs; and visit the lake’s local inhabitants, including freshwater fish, crabs, and a variety of plant life. 

Scuba certification structure:
1. Knowledge Development
2. Confined Water Dives
3. Open Water Dives

If you're short on time or testing the waters, the 2-day Scuba Discovery program pairs basic pool training with two guided open-water lake dives.
