Looking for the ultimate adventure? PADI's Advanced Course program
fine-tunes your dive skills and allows you to explore five new diving
environments. In this course, you will explore new aspects of diving
such as Drysuit, Wreck, Enriched Air (Nitrox),Peak Performance Bouyancy,
Night, Deep diving and Underwater Navigation. The Adventures In Diving
program offers you a structured weekend where you gain additional experience
and skills under the guidance of International Diving Centre's professional
dive team. The Advanced Course gives a taste of diving unlike you have
experienced before as an Open Water Diver and opens the door to thousands
of dive sites that were beyond the limitations that a Basic Open Water
certifiaction imposes. International Diving Centre's Advanced Course
includes a one evening orientation and pool session where skills are
refreshed and or drysuit use can be learned, and two Saturdays of diving
(five dives). The PADI Advanced course curriculum can be tailored to
experienced divers seeking new challenges, or to divers who have just
completed the Basic Open Water course and are looking to improve and
expand upon all they learned in Basic training. Unlike the
Basic Open Water course that is heavily academic and pool training
bent, the Advanced Course is almost all diving and is where many divers
truly achieve a greater level of comfort and confidence in the water.
