Advanced Open Water Diver

As you step beyond the PADI Open Water Diver level, you make five dives and have the opportunity to try some of diving's most rewarding and useful specialty activities. These skills make diving much more than underwater sightseeing. In this class, we take you on deep and underwater navigation Adventure Dives. These dives boost your confidence as you build these foundational skills. Then, we customize three additional Adventure Dive options such as AWARE-fish identification, boat diving, peak performance buoyancy, night diving, drift diving, wreck diving, search & recovery, and underwater naturalist. After receiving this certification, you can dive to a maximum of 100 feet (70 feet for 12-14 year-olds) with a qualified dive buddy.
