Advanced Open Water Diver Course
If you already have a PADI Open Water certification (or qualifying certification from another organization), the PADI Advanced Open Water Diver Course will sharpen your diving skills to become a well-rounded diver, extending also your depth limits to 30 m/ 100 ft.
The course takes 2 days, it consists on a knowledge development and 5 adventure dives, including the mandatory Deep and Underwater Navigation. You can choose the remaining 3 from following list:
-
Boat Adventure Dive
-
Delayed Surface Marker Buoy Adventure Dive
-
Drift Adventure Dive
-
Enriched Air
-
Fish ID Adventure Dive
-
Peak Performance Buoyancy Adventure Dive
-
Search and Recovery Adventure Dive

Underwater Naturalist Adventure Dive
Optional
Change one of the non mandatory adventure dives for 'Enriched Air Specialty' and get your PADI Nitrox Specialty certification (the adventure dive 'Nitrox' doesn't certify you as a Nitrox Specialist). The PADI Nitrox Specialty allows you to use Enriched Air tanks. You will go through a theory review, learn how to use an oxygen air analyzer and how to set up your computer to use Nitrox.
