Details
Certified divers looking for a new challenge are perfect for the PADI Advanced Open Water Plus Diver Course in Santa Maria. While exploring the clear waters of the Azores, you learn new techniques and consolidate existing skills. During your six adventure dives, you have the chance to explore the unique subaquatic landscape characterized by volcanic formations around Santa Maria Island. Get ready for mystic caves, historic wrecks, colourful reefs and fascinating sea creatures, like the Manta Ray.
Goal of the course
This program helps you improve your diving skills and develop even more confidence underwater while diving to depths of up to 30m. You also have the opportunity to get to know different areas of diving and find out what you like best. The two adventure dives "Deep Diving" and "Underwater Navigation" are an obligatory part of the course. In addition, 3 other adventure dives can be chosen among wreck diving, rescue dive, search and recovery, peak performance buoyancy, fish identification and many more. The extra dive can be a refresh dive (it will be done first if chosen), a rescue adventure dive or a classic guided exploration dive.
