Advanced Open Water Diver

The Advanced Open Water diver course can be perfectly fit into a weekend. A total of 5 training dives (over 2 days) on different subjects will get you upgraded and certified to dive to any recreational divesite. We will surely do one deep dive to approximately 30 meters and a navigation training dive. The other 3 dives are free to choose from PADI's available 'adventure dives'. For example the naturalist dive, multilevel dive and the great peak performance buoyancy training would complete your 5 required training dives.

Before coming down to Protaras you will have to study the corresponding chapters of the 'Adventures in diving-Manual' at home or during work when nobody is watching you. This way we can optimize our serious-fun-time at the beach.

The Advanced Open Water course is priced at € 270, which includes the PADI certification costs. You do need to have the Adventures in Diving Manual that you can also use later on if you want to continue picking up 'specialty certificates' on the path to becoming a 'Master Scuba Diver'.

If you prefer to take things step by step, or limited in your available time, you could consider going for the Adventure Diver certification. To earn this, take 3 'adventure dives' after having your Open Water certification. You can upgrade anytime later to Advanced diver by making 2 additional 'adventure dives'.

* If you have had health issues such as history of ear or lung problems, fainting, claustrophobia you will need a doctors statement to enroll. If you are having a cold diving needs to be postponed .
