If your new to diving or looking to enhance your diving skills, we can help you. Our courses follow the PADI international standard, ensuring your safety and enjoyment.
We offer a range of PADI Scuba Diving courses, including Certification Courses such as the PADI Open Water Diver to Advanced Open Water Diver and Speciality Courses (please email us regarding Speciality Courses).
This course is full conducted with a qualified PADI Instructor. The
course will take 3 or 4 days, but you can spread this time out across your
holiday. In this time you will go from beginners to a Certified PADI
Open Water Diver.
The course is in three parts:
1. Knowledge Development
There are five sections to go through from your PADI Training Manual.
You read in your own time a section, filling out the Knowledge review found
at the end of each section. Your instructor will go through the
Knowledge review you have completed, and answering any questions you may
have. After all 5 sections you will be given a 50-question test. The
test is multiple choice and the pass mark is 75% or higher.
2. Confined Water Training
This is where you will learn the skills to dive safely. There are five
confined sessions each conducted in the swimming pool.
3. Open Water Dives
Four Open Water dives are required for certification. In this part you
must demonstrate your ability to perform the skills you learnt in the
Confined water training sessions. The Open Water dives are conducted
in Sanur Bay, but other dive site maybe requested.

Having completed the PADI Open Water course you may well feel perhaps a
little apprehensive to venture underwater unescorted by your Dive
Instructor. You will be keen to try out your newly acquired diving skills
and try out different types of diving such as Night, Deep and Drift diving.
This is what the Advanced Open Water course is all about.
Do not be confused by the word Advanced. This course is designed as a
confidence builder to the newly certified diver. Introducing the diver to
different types of diving. There are no quizzes or written tests. Practical
skills learnt during the Open Water Course like mask removal are not
required for assessment on this course.
Certification
The Advanced Open Water Course introduces you to five specialty diving
activities under instructor supervision. You are required to complete two
core dives. The Deep Dive and Navigation Dive.
The other three dives are called Elective dives. These are selected by the
student and instructor according to location and environmental conditions.
Each dive counts towards the relevant specialty course. This cuts the cost
of completing the Specialties. If you complete five specialties and the
Rescue Diver you will then qualify for the Master Scuba Diver rating. This
is the highest non-professional rating in Scuba diving. Another option for
those with time constraints is the Adventure Diver certification. Any three
dives from the Advanced Open Water course qualify you for this rating. These
also go towards your full Advanced Open Water certification.
Who may participate?
Minimum age for this course is 12 years old. With restrictions for
participants under 15 years. You must either hold the PADI Open Water
certification or have equivalent certification with another diving
organisation. If you have not made a dive for some time a Scuba Review will
be required. Divers aged between 12 and 15 receive the junior Advanced,
which will be upgraded upon reaching 15 years of age.
What does the Course cover?
1. Course
Orientation
Prior to the course, students will receive the adventures in diving
manual. This contains information covering many areas of specialty diving
such as Deep, Night, Underwater Photography and many more.
You are required to read and complete the knowledge reviews for the relevant
sections of core and elective dives you will be participating in.
2. Core Dives
Under Water Navigation
Did you ever wonder how your instructor managed to find his or her way
around underwater? Well it's really not that difficult. This dive introduces
you to navigating yourselves during a dive. Using natural and compass
navigation techniques. This is a fun dive. This is just an introduction, you
can learn a lot more in the Navigation specialty.
Deep Dive
Everybody asks "how deep can you go"? Well as an Open Water diver you may go
to 18 meters. In the Advanced Open water you are taken to a maximum of 30
meters according to location and the environment. PADI has a maximum limit
of 40 meters if you participate in the Deep diver specialty.
3. Elective
Dives
Drift Dive
Ever wanted to know what it's like to fly? With drift diving it's like
flying underwater!
Night Dive
This is so very different to diving during day light hours. It's the nearest
thing you will ever get to floating in outer space, unless that is you are
an astronaut.
Peak Performance Buoyancy
Learn better buoyancy techniques. This is a good one if you have not dived
for awhile.
Underwater Naturalist Dive
This is a good one for making you more observant. Basically it's a
fish-spotting dive.
Wreck Dive
This is a favourite in the UK and overseas. Learn techniques to safely
explore these shipwrecks.
Multilevel Dive
We all want to spend longer underwater. Learning how to use the PADI wheel
gives you much more flexibility. We look more into underwater computers on
this one to.
Underwater Photography Dive
This is a lot of fun. You are let loose with an underwater camera!
