PADI Advanced Open Water (A/O/W):

As much an exciting experience programme as a formal training course, this is designed to take the new diver from the elementary stage to a level of confidence and competence that would otherwise take many dives to realise. Surprisingly, this is all achieved in only five well-chosen dives, under the instruction and watchful eyes of our professionals, who provide expert knowledge in safe, relaxed conditions. How better to promote greater confidence and ability?

The course is open to divers aged 15 years and over, with the PADI Open Water certificate (Junior Advanced Open Water, 12 years).

The A/O/W certification follows completion of five adventure dives, which must include the Deep and Navigation Dives. Three others must be chosen from the following

·        Drift Dive

·        Naturalist Dive

·        Night Dive (highly recommended!)

·        Multilevel Dive

·        Search and Recovery Dive

·        Peak Performance Buoyancy Dive (great for developing general diving ability)

After completing your five dives (generally over 2 days), you will be amazed at how much more comfortable and capable you are in the water, how much more relaxed. Because of this, your better understanding of the environment, and your new skills, you will feel much more relaxed and able to enjoy your diving.
