PADI ADVANCED OPEN WATER DIVER COURSE

With Underworld Scuba – Scuba Shack, Manzanillo, Mexico

Exploration, Excitement, Experiences.  They’re what the PADI Advanced Open Water Diver course is all about. And no, you don’t have to be “advanced” to take it – it’s designed so you can go straight into it after the PADI Open Water Diver course.  

The Advanced Open Water Diver course helps you increase your confidence and build your scuba skills so you can become more comfortable in the water.  This is a great way to get more dives under your belt while continuing to learn under the supervision of your PADI instructor. 

This course builds on what you’ve learned and develops new capabilities by introducing you to new activities and new ways to have fun scuba diving.

You’ll hone your skills by completing five adventure dives that introduce you to:

• Underwater navigation
• Deeper water diving  (typically anywhere from 18-30 meters/ 60-100 feet)
• A sampler of three more Adventure Dives of your choice

The Fun Part: Your Choice. One reason you’ll love the Advanced Open Water Diver course is that you and your instructor choose from 15 types of Adventure Dives to complete your course.

You can try your hand at digital underwater photography, fish identification, wreck diving, night diving, boat diving, peak performance buoyancy and much more.

• Get credit! Each Adventure Dive in the PADI Advanced Open Water Diver course may credit toward the first dive of the corresponding PADI Specialty Diver course.

Prerequisites. To take this course, you must be:

• A PADI Open Water Diver  (or qualifying certification from another training organization)
• 15 years old (12 for Junior Advanced Open Water Diver)

What You Learn. The knowledge and skills you get in the Advanced Open Water Course vary with your interest and the adventures you have, but include:

• Practical aspects of deep diving
• Physiological effects of deeper scuba diving.
• More ways to use your underwater compass
• How to navigate using kick-cycles, visual landmarks and time

The Scuba Gear You Use. Included with this course is all the basic scuba equipment, including your underwater compass. Depending on which three adventure dives you pick, you may also try out digital underwater photography equipment, a dive light, or other specialty gear.

Cost is $60 USD/dive (with larger groups, save $$).

Up to 3 dives can be done per day, depending on the dives. Days do not have to be consecutive, nor do all dives have to be completed by this dive center. Underworld Scuba – Scuba Shack is pleased to work with your vacation schedule.

Class dates requested*, ages of students

*Every effort will be made to accommodate your vacation schedule and give you the class dates you've requested, weather and conditions permitting. It is recommended that you plan your classes for the first days of your stay. While other tours can be done rain or shine, the Pacific Ocean can be unpredictable. By planning your diving activities first, when weather conditions do not permit you to dive on your chosen day, you still have other days as options. If, after choosing the days for class, you wish to change (for any reason), we will do our best to accommodate you.
