Next Step
After you have become a PADI Adventure Diver, inclusive of one PADI Navigation Adventure Dive, you have met the prerequisites for the PADI Rescue Diver course!
Once you have your PADI Adventure Diver certification you can continue your dive training in the areas you have enjoyed the most by completing two more adventure dives. Once you have completed five total adventure dives that include deep and navigation, you are a PADI Advanced Open Water Diver!
PADI Adventure Dives can also count towards PADI Specialties. For example, if you liked your Night Adventure Dive so much that you wanted to take a complete PADI Night Diver specialty course, your Night Adventure Dive can count as the first dive of that specialty.
