PADI's Deep Diver programme offers you the adventure of a lifetime - going deep allows you to see things others only dream about. To join the deep diving crowd, you'll need at least your Adventure Diver and be at least 15 years old.

The programme includes four open water dives, which are conducted over at least two days. The minimum depth for the deep dives is 18 metres with no dive exceeding 40 metres. All your dives will be conducted within the no-decompression limits, with deeper dives conducted first.

We highly recommend completion of the Enriched air Nitrox course prior to, or during this programme to enable you to safely increase no-decompression limits and extend bottom times. During your programme, you'll cover the knowledge, skills and techniques needed to dive deep. The following is included in the PADI Deep Diver programme:

Planning, organisation, procedures, techniques, problems and hazards of deep diving.
Risk factors and decompression-tables review.
Safety stops and emergency decompression procedures.
Special equipment, descent lines and buoyancy-control considerations.
Procedures for flying after diving and high-altitude diving.
Orientation to re-compression chambers.
The core Deep Dive conducted during the Adventures In Diving or Advanced Open Water programme may be counted toward this specialty at the discretion of the instructor.
