Khao Lak Advanced Course, 3 days / 6 dives
Doing the Advanced Open Water Program is an incredible 3 day “hands on” course in which you improve those diving skills you already have. Experience more by going deeper than 18 meters, learning how the fish act, how to navigate and not get lost! We will give these and many other useful and fun tools to increase your confidence and independence. After completion you will receive your Advanced Diver certificate which will allow you to dive more advanced divesites all around the world. Doing your course here in Khao Lak gives you the opportunity to see the Similan Islands AND stay in your resort at night! We go out by comfortable speedboat and if you have friends or family that don’t dive, they can join for a day of snorkeling or maybe even do a try dive in the Similans. This is mainly a practical course and there is no exam, so the Advanced course is a very nice way to better your skills on your holiday. The minimum dives required for the Advanced course is 5, but we actually do six dives, at no additional cost. Visit the beaches on the Similans, relax in Khao Lak and Dive the best sites In Thailand.
To start the Advanced course you need to be a certified Open Water Diver. In total you need to do 5 so-called Adventure Dives, each with a specific topic. The 6th dive is a regular fundive. Your instructor will do a theory session on each topic before the dives and under water there are a few excercises to be done. Don’t worry, the skills are easy and there will be a lot of time for diving left since we have small groups and allow for long divetimes. So no video’s, exams and homework! Just listen to you instructor and improve yourself on the dives. The following dives are popular choices for the Advanced Course:
- Deep Dive (mandatory)
- Navigation Dive (mandatory)
- Nitrox Dive
- Night Dive (only possible when done on our 3day / 2night Similan trips)
- Wreck Dive
- Buoyancy Dive
- Shark Dive
- Digital Underwater Photography Dive
There are more dives to choose from. You can discuss the options with your instructor and decide which dives are best to suit your interests. It’s up to you!
