PADI Advanced Open Water Diver

Ready to dive that little bit deeper?
Fine-tune your diving skills
Experience the start of some speciality courses

Elearning for some theory before the five speciality dives. Learn how to navigate underwater with more precision using a compass and underwater markers – yes, they do exist! You’ll also do a deeper dive since on completion, you’ll be able to dive to 30m anywhere in the world in similar conditions. The next three dives, you’ll be able to choose from a range of specialties for those that you’re most interested in or would like to improve. Many in our area choose Wreck as one since we have quite a few here to explore!
