The Awesome Introduction to Diving – PADI Advanced Open Water

Develop your skills while diving First Class sites!

If The Proper Introduction to Diving course trains you to be a good new diver, then The Awesome Introduction to Diving course prepares you to thrive under more adventurous and diverse diving conditions.

Most divers who get the Advanced certification want to go beyond the standard resort dive experience when they travel….whether that travel is to exotic, warm water destinations or here in world class BC waters. So if you want this kind of diving, why would you take the course at mediocre city dive sites? Why not take the course and get world class training dives?!

This course gives you more experience, more skill and qualifies you for many of the awesome adventures not available to every Open Water diver, such as…

• deep diving to as much as 40 meters.
• night diving with lights in a zero visibility environment.
• navigating competently underwater, by compass and other means.
• boat diving anywhere in the world.
• drift diving in current.
• wreck diving.
• searching and recovering lost treasures.
• diving with a computer.
• attaining buoyancy control for that perfectly weightless experience.
• studying the underwater world as a naturalist and eco-tourist.
• shooting underwater photos or video.
