Deepen the Exploration
Exploring the depths of the ocean isn’t just the stuff of legend and lore. And it doesn’t have to be left to just the professionals. As a recreational diver, you can train to safely make no-decompression dives that let you experience the thrill of the deep blue sea. With the PADI Deep Diver Specialty, you’ll expand your theoretical knowledge, as well as get hands-on training so that you learn to plan, organize and conduct deep dives.
