Advanced Open Water Diver Course
The Advanced Open Water Diver is a course for certified divers, with a basic certification level (Open Water or equivalent). It is a very practical course, oriented at dive experiences, dive skills, and having fun. The course has some classroom-style learning usually done online, and it includes 5 specialty dives. Each dive concentrates on a different experience or skill.
Two of the five dives are mandatory specialties, Deep diving, and Underwater Navigation, while the other 3 specialties can be chosen from a list of about 25 specialties.
This is a highly recommended course for beginners and intermediates alike to get formal training in Deep Diving, Underwater Navigation, and similar necessary skills. It is possible to take the Advanced course right after the Open Water Diver course or to get some experience first and take the course after getting a few dives in your logbook.
