You know how to swim, maybe have even already been scuba diving before and want to take things to the next level? Then the PE20 course is perfect for you!

In addition to learning a lot of new things, you'll go home with plenty of beautiful and happy memories and a brand new certificate.
Goal of the course
As part of the PE20 course, you will dive together with a professional diving instructor. They will dive up to 20 metres deep with you and teach you how to handle your equipment independently and how to secure yourself during dives. You will also be shown how to behave towards another diver in an emergency situation while waiting for the instructor's help.
