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 metres/ 60-100 feet)
•Any 3 other Adventure Dives of your choice. You can try your hand at digital underwater photography, wreck diving, night diving, diving with underwater scooters, peak performance buoyancy and much more.

After this course you will be qualified to dive to 30m, in conditions similar to those in which you learned, with a buddy with the same qualifiation or better.

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)

Courses are usually completed over 1 or 2 weekends/evenings based on your schedule.
Courses start every week       

Options
If you are short on time, or can't decide which dives you want, then the PADI Adventure Diver might be for you, do any 3 Adventure dives and get a certification.
