Move
up and experience real adventure with the
PADI Advanced Open Water Diver course. As
you step beyond the PADI Open Water Diver
level, you make five dives and have the opportunity
to try some of diving's most rewarding and
useful specialty activities, such as deep
diving, digital underwater photography, wreck
diving and much more. These skills make diving
much more than underwater sightseeing. Plus,
the Advanced Open Water Diver course takes
you one step closer to Master Scuba Diver
- the ultimate non professional certification
in recreational diving.
Course Outline
With
your PADI Instructor you complete the deep
and underwater navigation Adventure Dives.
These dives boost your confidence as you build

Dives to complete your course. You can go
diving at night, check out the local wrecks
