Advanced Diver – Training In Thailand

If you would like to continue with your training, this is the perfect opportunity to learn about some of the special and exciting types of dives available. TheĀ  Advanced Diver Course builds experience and understanding of diving, and is designed to be taken directly after the Open Water course.

The term “Advanced” is often mis-interpreted, as this course is simply advanced training for Open Water divers. What will I learn? You may want to look for lost items, take pictures under water, or visit your favourite reef at night. Your Advanced Course with Reef 2000 will give you the experience of some of the most popular diving activities, as well as developing skills that will allow your dives to be safer and more enjoyable.

This course improves your under water skills, providing you with a sample of specialty diving activities, however the extent and term of each differs to accommodate your interests. Prerequisites You must hold the Open Water certification and be at least 15 years of age.

What’s involved? Three “core” dives – a navigation dive, a deep dive and a night dive – and two “elective” dives which you will select with the help of your PADI instructor. These elective dives are based on specialities as diverse as Wreck Diving, Underwater Photography, and Drift Diving. You can complete this course in as few as 3 days. This is ideal for open water divers who want to continue their training during their holiday break. With Dahab’s world famous Canyon and Blue Hole dive sites, this is the perfect place for the PADI Advanced adventure.
