Advanced Open Water Diver Course
Enrollment Information

Academic Requirements:
The Advanced Open Water Diver Course is an experience oriented course designed to give you practical experience in a number of specialty diving areas. Unlike the Open Water Course, The Advanced Course involves no written testing and very little academic preparation. You will begin by reading the requisite academic materials at home on your own time. As you complete each chapter of the text you will fax or email the chapter reviews to your tutor for review and critique. The material will then be reviewed with your tutor and returned to your prior to your water training sessions. Once at the dive site your instructor will again review the material prior to each training dive. The objective of the course is to give you as much in water time as possible in which to perfect your diving skills.

Dive Requirements:
Advanced certification requires a minimum of five dives to be done in as few as two days. If you have Instructor signed documentation of Advanced Level dives, we will credit you with the dives completed. You may not need all five dives to obtain the Advanced Certification.


To begin you will need the following Advanced Diver Course materials:

Adventures in Diving; Advanced Diver Manual: $33.00


Course Tuition $100
Tuition covers course enrollment and registration fees, Knowledge Development quizzes and PADI Certificate of Referral Training Record.

Water Training Fee: $25 per dive.

Advanced Certification requires 5 dives. If completing all 5 dives with us the total water training fee would be $125. If you have Instructor signed documentation of Advanced Level dives, we will credit you with the dives completed. You would, in this case, only need to complete the remaining dives in order to obtain the Advanced Certification.

At our Monterey, CA facility, on the second day of the program we will venture out into Monterey Bay for the course, deep dive. If the dive is conducted from our zodiac inflatable, there will be no additional charge. At times we have the option to conduct the dive aboard one of the Monterey dive charter boats. In that case, there will be a boat charter fee of $85 over and above the course fees.
