Whether you're an experienced diver or have just completed your dive training, the PADI Advanced Open Water Course will allow you to develop new skills, refine existing ones, and boost your confidence as a diver.

The course comprises five adventure dives, including two mandatory dives:

  • The Deep Dive takes you to depths of up to 30 meters, enabling you to explore more dive sites.
  • The Navigation Dive enhances your underwater orientation skills, whether through natural navigation or using dive equipment.

Additionally, you'll conduct three more adventure dives, where you can choose from various options, including night diving, naturalist diving, peak performance buoyancy, wreck diving, search and recovery diving and fish identification.

The course is led by an experienced PADI instructor who will accompany you on all dives, providing guidance and instruction to deepen your knowledge and diving skills.

PADI eLearning offers a convenient and flexible way to complete the theoretical part of your dive course from the comfort of your home. It allows you to learn at your own pace and prepare for the practical aspects of your dive training.
