Who should take this course?

Want to stay warm? Want to extend your scuba diving season? Then dive dry. A drysuit seals you off from the water and keeps you comfortable, even in surprisingly cold water. There is incredible diving in the world’s cooler regions and in some areas, conditions are even better in colder months. Becoming a dry suit diver allows you to expand your boundaries and dive more places, more often.

What will you learn?

The first thing you’ll discover is which dry suit style and accompanying undergarments are right for you and the diving you’ll do. Then you’ll learn how to take care of your dry suit. During two dives, in addition to a confined water dive, you’ll practice:

  • Putting on and taking off your dry suit with minimal assistance.
  • Mastering buoyancy control using your dry suit.
  • Dive safety procedures when using a dry suit.

What’s Involved?

The course consists of a minimal amount of theory - the Drysuit Diving manual guides you through the knowledge needed to complete the drysuit 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 Drysuit Diver rating, you need to complete one pool session and two open water shore dives. 

DAY 1: POOL SESSION
DAY 2: BOAT DIVES

Course Includes:

  • PADI Online Learning
