The program will start with an hour of theory with one of our Padi instructors. This will be to explain the basics of scuba diving and to prepare you for your first experiences of breathing air underwater.

This will then be followed by two shallow dives accompanied at all times with the instructor.

The Adventure Club's policy is a maximum of 3 participants to each instructor.

Duration: 1 day

The Advanced Open Water course generally takes 2 days with an option to extend the 5th dive onto a 3rd day.

Each student is provided an Adventures in Diving manual. It's important to read the chapters for each of the chosen dives, however the manual also provides information about any of the speciality dives provided by PADI.

Prior to each dive, our instructors conduct a theory session and students are required to fill in the knowledge reviews.

During each dive the students will put into practices the skills they have learned.

This comprehensive program is composed of two core modules that can be taught in tandem with the Rescue or as stand-alone courses:

Emergency First Response - Primary Care and Emergency First Response - Secondary Care. Together, these courses proved extensive instruction in CPR and First Aid, as well as providing optional (yet recommended) Automated External Defibrillator (AED) and Emergency Oxygen sections

The PADI Junior Open Water Diver certification is the corner stone of the PADI System. The course is split into three main areas with sub divisions:

* Knowledge development, in which there are five modules.

* Confined water is the next segment and is conducted in water that represents swimming pool like conditions. During this portion of the course you will be taught how to master all of the scuba skills.

* The final segment is made up of four open water dives conducted over 2 days. These take place on the Reef Ranger. Our new boat offers full amenities and comfort, including refreshments, coffee and tea.

Our onboard cook prepares a variety of succulent Thai dishes for lunch served up as a buffet so you can eat as much as you like.

During these dives you will show that you have mastered all that you have learned in the previous two areas and before completion the student must complete a 200m swim and a 10-minute tread water
