Your PADI Advanced Open Water certification is the next step in your diving education, which allows you to explore different diving specialties under the supervision and guidance of a PADI Instructor, and gain supervised experience while you build on the basic skills you learnt in your PADI Open Water Course. It allows you to dive to a maximum depth of 30m, opening more dive sites for you to explore.


What’s Involved?

The course consists of a minimal amount of theory - the Adventures in Diving manual guides you through the knowledge needed to complete the five adventure dives. It is largely a practical course, with only a small amount of time in the classroom, so it only takes two days to complete! To earn your Advanced Open Water rating, you need to complete five adventure dives, including Peak Performance Buoyancy, Underwater Navigation, Night Diving, Deep Diving and Boat Diving. 


Course Includes:

• PADI Adventures in Diving Manual
• Tanks and weights
• Accommodation at the Tasman Peninsula (shared lodge style)
• 3 x Shore dives
• 2 x Boat dives
• Refreshments between dives
  
  

What do I need?

• You will need your own dive gear gear. If you do not have your own gear, gear hire is available in store
• You will need an adequate torch for the night dive
• You will need an SMB with reel (surface marker buoy) for the boat dives
• You will need a compass for the navigation dive
