(5 dives (min), 2 and 1/2 to 3 and 1/2 days)

Lots of diving with a mission, our Advanced course includes a Deep Dive (70 -100 feet), Night Dive, Navigation dive, Buoyancy fine tuning and a Nitrox certification. Advanced Plus includes Deep diver (2 more dives) and emergency first responder. Putting you well on the way to Master Scuba Diver. Our course puts the reality of advanced before the title not because it's arduous but because it has substance. You will actually be able to do more upon completing this certification. Even if you start just after your basic certification, you will feel advanced after this course.

This is a prescriptive program which requires you read five sections of a manual "Adventures in Diving" and booklet and video "Enriched Air Diving" before you begin the class. On day one we'll meet at the beach at 7:00 in the morning for your first dives. That afternoon we'll finish academics. The next day we'll meet at the boat for your deep and nitrox dives. Usually the last dive is your night dive. Everything you need for the dive is included in our price except your swim suit, towel and sun block.
