Obtained PADI Open Water Diver license on the main island of Okinawa. What is a "C card"?

The official name is Certification Card = Certificate. It proves that it has acquired knowledge and skills (teaching standards). There are several types of open water divers, advanced open water divers, etc. depending on the diver's rank and technique. for a while Diving If you do not, your skills will decline, so it is recommended that you take classes to remind you. In the introductory level course Wed You will learn the knowledge and skills needed to dive with Buddy (instructor, staff and other partners) in a calm daytime within 18m.

It seems that there is a big difference in the training content, departure / end schedule, and cost depending on the diving shop where you take the course and the tour you participate in, so when I was researching, I found a recommended plan that is a little cheaper, so I will introduce it. See below for details!

First of all, I want you to clarify whether you can have more than 2 people or even one person. It's a very important issue for me. If you are alone, you can easily go when it is convenient for you, but if you are two or more, you have to invite someone! I don't have any friends who will go out to get a diving license with me because I have a vacation schedule. Even if you can go alone, this plan is very cheap! Yay! It costs 30,000 yen, and all equipment rental is free! Cheap! Moreover, you can pick up and drop off at Naha Airport and your accommodation (only in Naha city).

Oh yeah, this place is on the main island of Okinawa. Popular spot Okinawa! So, of course, I know that it will cost you to travel by plane, but if you use a cheap ticket, it will be about the same price as getting a license on Hachijojima in Tokyo. If it's the same, it's okay to go to Okinawa. I really want to go to Hachijojima, but it's good to go to Okinawa! I would like to take a long vacation, get a license, and enjoy some diving experiences in the beautiful sea while traveling.

There are various explanations for this plan, so there is a sense of security. Above all, being able to study in advance is a nice point for me, who is not confident in studying. It is a system like Shinkenzemi that the teaching materials are sent when you make a reservation. I want to read the strange manga sent in that envelope of Shinkenzemi again. I want to get drunk with the development that all the tests, club activities, and romance go well.

It says, "The amount of teaching materials is about 10 days slowly," but isn't it quite worrisome to go without studying that amount in advance? I mean, how do people who have licenses overseas study? The mystery just deepens ... For the time being, I would like to study hard at home and pass the exam brilliantly while spending time relaxing on the beach in Okinawa. It is recommended for people like me who are worried about studying.

The underwater training is a plan only for the beach, not the pool, and I think that is also good for me who wants to practice in the sea anyway. I just noticed that the "license application fee" is not written in the [included in the price] section of this plan. By the way, I can't find the word "C card" either. By the way, are there any licenses other than C card? No, there are still many things I don't understand, so I'll write a blog if I check it again!
