Course Content
You will love the Advanced Open Water Diver course, because you are able to choose from 15 different adventure dives together with your diving instructor to complete your course. You have a lot of possibilities, like digital underwater photography, night diving, peak performance buoyancy and even more.
What you learn
You’ll plan your learning path with your instructor by choosing from a long list of Adventure Dives. There are two required dives – Deep and Underwater Navigation – and you choose the other three, for a total of five dives. During the Deep Adventure Dive, you learn how to plan dives to deal with the physiological effects and challenges of deeper scuba diving. The Underwater Navigation Adventure Dive refines your compass navigation skills and helps you better navigate using kick-cycles, visual landmarks and time. The other knowledge and skills you get vary with your interest and the adventures you have – photography, buoyancy control, fish identification, exploring wrecks and many more.
Schedule
The ADVANCED Open Water Diver course can be completed in a minimum of 3 days. If you should be short of time we recommend you to participate the PADI eLearning programme. Whit this you acquire the theory with PADI learning texts and videos on your Computer or Tablet and can start to dive right away when you arrive. Please schedule a minimum of 3 – 5 days for your ADVANCED Open Water Diver course in any case, because we cannot start a course with single persons every day.
