Advanced Open Water Diver

Looking for the ultimate adventure?

If you want to gain new experiences, new skills then the PADI Advanced Open Water Diver program is for you. During the course you will get to explore some of diving’s top adventures and complete a deep and navigation dive plus three adventure dives that interest you most from the following list:

  • AWARE-Fish Identification
  • Underwater Naturalist
  • Boat
  • Underwater Navigator
  • Peak Performance Buoyancy
  • Digital Underwater Photography
  • Multilevel

What do I need to start?

  • Minimum age : 15 (12 for PADI Junior Advanced Open Water Diver)
  • PADI Open Water Diver certification (or qualifying certification from another organization)
  • Virtually anyone who is in good health, reasonably fit, and comfortable in the water can participate in the PADI Advanced Open Water Diver Course
  • Click here to download Divers Medical Questionnaire (PDF Document)
  • If the participant answers yes to any of the medical questions listed then a signed clearance from a doctor, valid within 12 months will be required

For those students who have not dived for over 6 months we recommend that they also complete a Scuba Review.

The Scuba Review is a short refresher course including a review of the safety information you learned during your initial training along with a supervised skill session in confined water with your Instructor. It is also a good idea to get hold of a copy of the PADI Adventures In Diving Manual and complete the appropriate knowledge reviews for the Adventure Dives that interest you.

Why Advanced Open Water Diver?

After your five dives, you’ll be more experienced, feel more comfortable in the water and simply enjoy diving more because you better understand the underwater environment

How long will it take?

  • Two Days
  • Five dives

What will I need?

  • Adventures in Diving Manual
  • Log Book

Can I also make PADI Enriched Air Dives in this course?

Two of your dives can also be combined with the Enriched Air Nitrox Course which will build your confidence as you extend your bottom time. By diving with enriched air rather than standard air you can extend your no decompression limits. This means more time underwater.

Course Prices Include

  • Hotel Transfers to and from hotel / Dive Boat
  • Lunch & Light refreshments on Dive Tours
  • Equipment Rental
  • Tanks, weights and Boat Fees
  • Certification Fee
