The Advanced Open Water Diver course is all about advancing your skills. Available also in eLearning, the first phase of this training is Knowledge Development, which includes lessons on popular specialty dives. In the second phase you’ll practice underwater navigation and buoyancy, try deep diving and make three specialty dives of your choosing.

For every specialty dive you complete, you can earn credit toward PADI specialty certifications.
