Welcome to the most common next step in your scuba diving journey. This certification expands on your open water knowledge and gives you a sample of 5 different continuing education courses where you experience the first dive in each course. When complete, the certification dives will count towards both getting your advanced certification as well as that course specialty, if you pursue it. Mandatory dives are deep & navigation, and you may select at least 2 more in water dives (4 of the 5 classes must be in water).
The Advanced diver certification is where you “sample” additional types of diving, skills or methodologies. To earn your advanced diver certification you will perform the 1st dive of 5 specialities. You can choose 3 of these specialties (2 of which MUST be conducted in-water) in addition the the mandatory Deep & Navigation dives. This course will extend your depth limit to a maximum of 100′ as well as give you a taste of other types of diving you would like to explore.
