PADI Advanced Open Water Course

This is for you if you’ve done the Open Water course and now you want to continue to develop your diving skills and be more confident in the water.

This course lets you try out 5 different specialty dives... deep, navigation (which you have to do) and 3 others (wreck, night, photography, peak performance buoyancy, AWARE Fish ID etc).

It is a hugely worthwhile course because it also allows you to dive to a maximum of 30 metres, instead of the limiting 18 metres of open water diver. Many liveaboard companies require that you have this rating to join their cruises (or complete it during the cruise) as it shows that you have a better understanding of diving theory and that you have a bit more experience. The best thing about this course is that there's no exam :) You will receive a manual and you will be required to read the chapters which correspond to the specialties that you have chosen to learn more about, and complete a short knowledge review at the end of each chapter - easy!

This rating is required if you plan to go on and pursue the PADI Rescue Diver course.

This course can be done on Phuket Daytrips, Phi-Phi Overnight Special or Liveaboard Trip - contact us for prices and more information info@calypsophuket.com :)
