PADI Advanced Open Water Diver

A great way to apply the skills you learned in your open water course. You can choose from any three adventure dives and complete a certification that counts towards your PADI Advanced Open Water Diver rating. f you have participated in specialty diver courses, or you have completed your PADI National Geographic Diver Certification, you may have already started the Adventures in Diving Program and are able to credit your previous experienced towards your Advanced Certification.

Program Philosophy

The PADI Adventures in Diving program is based on the premise that diving is a means to explore other interests. Once comfortable with basic skills, most divers want to conquer new tasks, see different creatures, journey into diverse environments and experience new adventures. If you look for convenience and flexibility in continuing your diving education, this will be perfect for you. The program’s design allows you to choose the dives that interest you and to sample activities under the guidance of a PADI Instructor. Sometimes you may choose to make only one Adventure Dive. Other times you may want additional recognition and complete several dives to earn a PADI certification. 

The variety of dives, flexible scheduling options and certification paths makes this program super easy to participate in.  Because each Adventure Dive may count as the first dive of the related PADI Specialty Diver course, the program tends to motivate you continue training in those areas that really interest you.  in those areas that really interest you.
