R8,200.00

WITH MORE FOCUS ON DEEP!

Our Advanced 35 program is designed to give you experience in a variety of specialty areas and the scuba diving course has a very strong focus on improving your diving skills and creating a comfortable diver with knowledge and experience in diving to 35m.

The course is broken into two sections one being theory and the other practical.

Open Water Training

As a qualified Advanced 35 diver you will be confident to plan and execute dives to 35m using nitrox, this course included a lot more detail than a standard Explorer 30 (Advanced course). Your dive planning will all take place using your dive computer so that you are comfortable to switch your oxygen percentage on your computer and plan your dives based on all the available information.

Training outline

The first dive that we perform is purely focused on improving your buoyancy skills, your instructor will spend the dive showing you small tricks and making suggestions to help you achieve perfect buoyancy.

Our second dive we focus on navigation, this gives you a further opportunity to hone those buoyancy skills that you learnt on the previous dive and gives you an understanding of natural navigation and compass work.

Our third dive is a rescue dive where we focus on self rescue; identifying potential problems, solving minor problems before they become an issue and assisting a buddy in distress, however we do encourage all divers to participate in the Master Rescue program as this gives one a true appreciation of diver rescue.

Dives 4 and 5 are deep dives, to 30m and 35m respectively, your instructor will focus on the safety aspects of deep diving and a great deal of effort will be spent on making sure you are able to accurately work out air consumption and interpret your dive computer.

Dive 6 is an elective dive and based on the area your instructor will offer you a wide range of specialty dives from night diving to wreck diving.
