How to Start Diving

You can begin your scuba certification without crowded classes or confusing schedules. Our training structure is organized, consistent, and designed for new divers who want a clear path from start to finish. Certification options start at age ten. Most new divers begin with the Open Water Diver Certification course, which is offered in our modern Weekender format that completes training in a single focused weekend.

Getting certified follows a simple three step process that helps new divers build confidence at a comfortable pace.

  • Knowledge development: Complete your academic training online at your own pace.
  • Pool training: Learn essential skills in a controlled environment with direct instructor guidance.
  • Open water dives: Complete your training dives at The Scuba Ranch in Terrell or at Balmorhea State Park.

A Modern Training Experience

Traditional scuba training often requires multiple store visits, paper forms, and two or more separate weekends at the lake. OCD Divers uses a modern training model that removes unnecessary steps while keeping all required skills and safety standards. You can complete sign up, eLearning, medical forms, and waivers online before class, and all essential gear is delivered directly to The Scuba Ranch.

Most Terrell divers complete their full certification in one organized weekend instead of two. This structure is especially helpful for busy professionals and families who need predictable schedules and clear expectations without sacrificing quality or safety.

You can continue your scuba training with us no matter where you earned your previous certification. We work with divers from PADI, SSI, NAUI, SDI, and PSS, and all major agencies follow the same international RSTC standards.
