PADI Deep Diver Specialty Course at Underwater Vision
There is something alluring about the deep blue water to a diver who has had a little experience. What is out there? What creatures may I encounter? For those divers who are ready to dive a little deeper, the PADI Deep Diver Course will take you to some of the deeper sites around Utila to experience deeper water diving and to encounter the creatures which make the mysterious deeper zones their homes!
What will you learn?
Your training starts by reviewing reasons for deep diving and how important it is to know your personal limits. During four deep dives with your instructor, you’ll go over:
- Techniques for diving in the deeper range of 18-40 metres/60-130 feet
- Deep scuba diving equipment considerations
- Experience in planning, organizing and making at least four deep dives under the supervision of your PADI Instructor
