If you are ready to improve your diving skills, then you should take the Advanced Open Water Diver course. This course will improve your buoyancy and navigation skills, as well deep diving skills. It also includes three specialty divers of your choice. You'll earn credit toward specialty certifications when you complete the course.
Adventure dives
For a full certification as a scuba diver, adventure diving is essential. They improve your buoyancy and awareness, as well as your communication skills. Normally, you must complete 5 adventure dives before you can be certified. Your instructor will assist you in improving your breathing and kicking skills, as well as teaching you how to plan your dives.
Adventure dives are the first dives in each specialty course, and they count towards the specialty you are working towards. This way, you'll be able to choose dives that will be useful in the future. PADI recommends divers that have multiple objectives.
Night dive
Advanced Open Water Divers teaches students about various techniques that make them safer underwater. They learn how they can breathe correctly and how to maintain their body's alignment. They also learn how dive lights work and communicate with their buddy. They will have a lot of fun playing in shallow waters and practicing their skills.
Night diving offers a unique way to see new underwater worlds. It is a completely new experience, and night diving is more exciting than regular daytime diving. Even though night diving is scary, it's not difficult. You will learn the proper techniques and overcome any difficulties associated with night diving.
Underwater naturalist dive
PADI Underwater Naturalist is designed to give students the knowledge and skills necessary to interact with the aquatic environment. Students learn about basic organism groupings and identification, how these species live in different habitats and how to practice environmentally-friendly diving. They also learn about the importance of marine conservation, including conservation of biodiversity.
The PADI Underwater Naturalist course is for divers who have completed their PADI Open Diver certification and would like to explore the marine environment in a more scientific way. The course covers coral reefs, marine organisms and food chains as well as the relationships between different species. The course is one-day long and includes two open water dives.
Peak performance buoyancy dive
The most important skill to master when diving is to maintain buoyancy. Being buoyant is essential as falling into the water can result in decompression illness. Poor buoyancy control can increase your risk of injury from marine life or sharp rocks. PADI Peak Performance Bulkancy Specialty was created to assist divers with proper buoyancy control so they can avoid these problems.
PADI Peak Performance Bulkyancy Specialty is an intensive one-week class. It includes classroom and pool sessions along with two optional open water diving. The class also teaches students buoyancy control, which helps them glide through the water better. Ultimately, this PPB program is about making diving easier, more fun, and more efficient.
Maximum depth of 30 meters or 100 feet
The PADI Advanced Open Water Course will teach you how to dive to 100 feet. Deeper than that is dangerous, as you can experience nitrogen narcosis. This depth is also dangerous for making mistakes that can prove to be fatal. You should not dive any deeper than this depth without training.
The Advanced Open Water course usually takes between 1.5 and 2 days to complete. The instructor determines the length of the course. The course can either be completed online or at the beach. Before you can take the course, it is important that you have instructor training.
