Take Your Diving to New Depths in Phuket
Ready to elevate your scuba skills and explore new underwater frontiers? Our Advanced Open Water Certification program is designed for certified divers who want to go beyond the basics. With expert instructors, specialized training, and Phuket’s world-class dive sites, you’ll gain the confidence and skills to tackle more challenging dives and discover the ocean’s hidden treasures.
Why Advance Your Skills in Phuket?
Phuket’s diverse marine ecosystems offer the perfect playground for advanced divers. From deep wrecks to underwater caves, the Andaman Sea is full of surprises. As an advanced diver, you’ll have the opportunity to see even more of the ocean’s incredible wildlife. On average, divers in Phuket encounter dozens of species in a single dive—far more than you’d see on land. It’s a chance to deepen your connection with nature and experience the ocean in a whole new way.
Closer to Nature Than Ever Before
As an advanced diver, you’ll gain access to dive sites that are off-limits to beginners. These sites are often richer in marine life, offering the chance to see rare and fascinating species. Imagine diving alongside a school of barracuda, spotting a hidden octopus, or witnessing the eerie beauty of a sunken wreck. The ocean is full of wonders, and every dive brings you closer to nature in a way that’s both humbling and exhilarating.
What You’ll Learn
Our Advanced Open Water Certification program builds on your existing skills and introduces you to new diving techniques. Over 2-3 days, you’ll complete five adventure dives, including:
- Deep Diving: Explore depths of up to 30 meters and discover the unique challenges and rewards of deep diving.
- Underwater Navigation: Master the art of navigating underwater using natural landmarks and a compass.
