What dives can I choose for the 3 of my choice?
Each of the Advanced dives are classed as a speciality dive. This means that if you continued to progress in that area, you could undertake the remaining required dives in that specialist area to obtain full certification in that speciality. We advise divers to choose areas which they are interested in progressing or areas that they wish to improve. A full list of dives can be found on our ‘speciality dives’ page.

Depending on your age at the time of the course, the maximum depth will either be 30 meters or 21 meters, if Junior Open Water.

All equipment is included in the course. We do however advise that you have your own mask and dive computer for the course. Our on site or online shop can assist with this.
Where can I take the course?
The course can be taken at any of our centres. As we have our own boats too, it is possible for some of the training to be undertaken in the sea and this is something that we would encourage.
