PADI Deep Diver (3 Day)
Our PADI Deep Diver course is designed to elevate your diving skills and expand your horizons beneath the waves that includes a double boat dive at Broughton Island and Enriched Air (Nitrox) on all dives. Throughout this course, you will learn how to meticulously plan deep dives, ensuring that every aspect of your adventure is thoughtfully considered. This includes managing your gas supply effectively, allowing you to explore deeper depths with confidence and ease.
A significant focus of the course is on understanding and recognising the effects of narcosis, a phenomenon that can impact divers at greater depths. You will gain crucial insight into how to identify its symptoms and manage its effects, ensuring a safer diving experience.
Additionally, the course emphasises the importance of buddy contact procedures, reinforcing the necessity of maintaining consistent communication and support with your dive partner. Safety considerations are paramount, and you will learn best practices for deep diving, including emergency protocols to follow should the unexpected arise.
Buoyancy control at depth is another vital skill you will master, allowing for greater stability and comfort underwater. This component of the training ensures you can enjoy the unique marine environments while preserving them for future generations.
By the end of the Deep Diver course, you will be well-equipped with the knowledge and skills to explore deeper dives safely and responsibly, enhancing both your diving capability and enjoyment.
