Where this price comes from

Dive Paradise's own price, checked on 13 Aug 2026. See the source page ↗

$497 USD base course fee, covering personalized PADI instructor time and dive gear. The page lists mandatory add-ons not folded into the base price: a PADI manual (+$1580 MXN) and PADI certification/PIC processing (+$960 MXN), plus the general note elsewhere on the site that the $225 MXN/day Marine Park fee is excluded from all posted prices. These MXN-denominated fees aren't converted into the total estimate since the page gives no USD figure and the course spans a variable number of diving days.

“This course includes a minimum of 4 open water dives over a 3-5 day period. Most students complete the program as safe, confident divers in 3 days.”
