The PADI Advanced Open Water (AOW) Course gives you exposure to real diving scenarios, just like you'll experience out there in the real world, with practical 'Adventure' dives. It is a safe and easy method of advancing your diving experiences.
The Advanced Course is fully inclusive and you will receive a full colour course manual and will study much of the theory at home at your convenience, completing the knowledge reviews as you go.
Courses take place at the National Diving & Activity Centre or Guildenborough or Stoney Cove and you will need to complete a registration form at the gate, and pay to park and and enter (typically £7 to £8.00 per day). This is exactly what you will do when you choose to go and dive at the NDC, Stoney or Guildenborough yourself.
All equipment is provided throughout your course. A deposit of £24.95 (refundable) will be required against the free loan of your PADI Go Dive course video.
