You will use the complete diving system equipment that you have used in previous courses, such as the Open Water Diver. Additionally, you will use specific items like a compass and maps to practice different exercises.
We will conduct the dives in the Playa Blanca area, a location that features different diving zones where you can practice various navigation exercises.
If you already have your Open Water Diver certification, have dived in the last year, and your medical condition has not changed since your Open Water Diver certification (you have no medical issues that are incompatible with diving), we can accommodate you. Ideally, you should book your course at least 1 week in advance to be able to read the course manual. *It is necessary to wait a minimum of 24 hours after completing your dives before traveling off the island.

This will enable you to stay oriented throughout your dive.
All instructors have become professionals with us so they fit our teaching philosophy and have not only their own experience but also that of their instructors and peers who have been in the dive industry for decades.
