Overview

If you’re already a certified diver and ready to expand your horizons, the PADI Advanced Open Water Diver Course is your next adventure. Conducted in Kalpitiya over two days, this course focuses on building confidence and introducing you to new types of diving.

You’ll complete five adventure dives. Two are mandatory: the Deep Dive (up to 30 meters) and Underwater Navigation. These essential dives give you the skills to safely explore deeper waters and master underwater navigation techniques. The remaining three dives are elective and tailored to your interests—whether you want to experience the magic of a night dive, practice peak performance buoyancy, explore a wreck, or try underwater photography.

Unlike the Open Water course, theory is minimal. Instead, the focus is on hands-on diving and real-world practice. With the support of your instructor, you’ll gain valuable skills while enjoying the unique marine environments of Kalpitiya.

By completing this course, you’ll earn the PADI Advanced Open Water Certification, allowing you to dive up to 30 meters anywhere in the world. It’s the perfect step for divers looking to explore new depths and challenges.
