Deep Diver Specialty Course @ Big Pine Key

The calmness and lure of the deep…. There’s something exciting and mysterious about exploring deeper dive sites while scuba diving. Sometimes it’s a wreck that attracts you below 18 metres/60 feet, and on wall dives it may be a giant fan or sponge. Whatever it is, to scuba dive with confidence at depths down to 40 meters/130 feet, you should take the Deep Diver Specialty course. 

You will learn the importance of your training and improved skills as you push into deeper waters.  This course will give you the confidence to explore these depths without apprehension.  Once mastered, scuba diving just becomes easier whenever you enter the water....And when it is easier, the ocean opens itself up to you.  This is somewhat true for any additional training that you take, but it is especially true when you have mastered the ability to dive deep.

This course includes two boat trips to deep water sites, instruction and all necessary dive rental gear for this course.  Completion of the course work, successful knowledge reviews and testing along with the four deep water dives will get you certified as a Deep Water Diver.
