Advanced Diver
Introduction
Doing the SCUBA DIVER course in many ways only credits you with a “licence to learn”. It provided you with the basic skills without necessarily making you a competent diver. We believe a diver is only competent once he/she has completed the ADVANCED DIVER course.
The intention with the NAUI Advanced Diver course is to make you a more independent as well as a more confident diver.
Duration
Whenever you feel like diving! The course consists mostly of practical application in the form of at least 6 dives with in-depth briefings and tasks so it can be conducted at your convenience.
Prerequisites
- Minimum age of 15 years
- Certification as a scuba diver by a recognised agency is required.
