Deep Diver


The lure of the deep. There is something exciting and mysterious about exploring deeper dive sites while scuba diving. Sometimes it is a wreck below 18 meters/60 feet, and on wall dives it may be a giant fan or sponge.


Whatever it is, to scuba dive with confidence at depths down to 40 meters/130 feet, divers should take the PADI Deep Diver Specialty course.

Students who have earned the PADI Adventure Diver rating or higher, and are at least 15 years old, may enroll in the Deep Diver course.


DETAILS


Academic

Training starts by reviewing reasons for deep diving and how important it is to know personal limits. During four deep dives with the instructor, students will go over:

Special deep diving equipment


Deep dive planning, buddy contact procedures and buoyancy control


Managing diver gas supply, dealing with gas narcosis and safety considerations


Equipment

Students will need a dive computer along with the rest of the basic scuba equipment. A dive light and slate are also recommended.
