The Adventure Diver course is a subset of the PADI Advanced Open Water Diver Course. Have you always wanted to try digital underwater photography, fish identification or dry suit diving? There is a long list of scuba adventures you can take part in during this program. Complete three Adventure Dives and you earn the Adventure Diver certification. It is a great opportunity to work with your instructor to build your scuba skills and gain more confidence. Get a taste of what you like and enjoy scuba diving more than ever.
Get credit. Each Adventure Dive may credit toward the first dive of the corresponding PADI Specialty Diver Course. If you have already taken a specialty diver course, ask your instructor if you have earned credit for an Adventure Dive.
PADI (Junior) Open Water Divers, who are at least 10 years old and want to take the next step, should enroll in an Adventure Diver course. Young divers may only participate in certain Adventures Dives — check with your PADI Instructor.
You can choose what you are most interested in learning.
Need to work on your buoyancy skills? Try the Peak Performance Buoyancy Adventure Dive.
Want to know what you are looking at down there? Try the AWARE - Fish Identification or Underwater Naturalist Adventure Dives.
You will plan your path with your instructor, go over what you need to know and dive in quickly.
Beyond using basic scuba equipment, you will learn to use special gear depending on the Adventure Dives you choose. When we determine your path we can determine the equipment that you need and may suggest additional gear, such as a dive light for night diving or a lift bag for search and recovery diving.
Check with me about the gear you will use during this course, and get advice about everything you need in order to dive into your new adventure.
