The Advanced Open Water Diver program has something for everyone. It includes a total of five Adventure Dives from the following list (must include deep and navigation dive):
If you're 15 years of age or older, and a PADI Open Water Diver or equivalent, then you're ready for the Advanced Open Water Diver program. Or, if you're a PADI Junior Open Water Diver or equivalent and between the ages of 12 and 14, there's the PADI Junior Advanced Open Water Diver program.
After successfully completing the course, you'll receive the PADI Advanced Open Water Diver certification. This allows you to participate in more advanced diving activities with a maximum recommended depth limit of 30 metres/100 feet, in addition to the qualifications listed for PADI Open Water Divers.
What does this program offer you? New experiences, new skills, lots of diving and thrilling adventures! So take your diving to new limits!
