PADI Advanced Open Water Diver
Move up and experience real adventure with the PADI Advanced Open
Water Diver course. 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, such as deep diving, digital
underwater photography, wreck diving and much more. These skills make
diving much more than underwater sightseeing. Plus, the Advanced Open
Water Diver course takes you one step closer to Master Scuba Diver -
the ultimate non-professional certification in recreational diving.
With your PADI Instructor you complete the deep and underwater navigation
Adventure Dives. These dives boost your confidence as you build these
foundational skills. Then, you choose three additional dives from more than
15 Adventure Dives to complete your course. You can go diving at night,
or fly through the ocean on a diver propulsion vehicle - all during your
PADI Advanced Open Water Diver course.
