NUSA PENIDA ADVANCED DIVE TRAINING
Questions and answers
This is a great question that highlights the flexibility of SSI’s training. The Advanced Adventurer is a “taster” course where you complete five introductory dives from five different specialties to find out what you enjoy most. In contrast, the Advanced Open Water Diver is a higher recognition level you earn after completing four full specialty courses and logging at least 24 dives. Ultimately, the Advanced Adventurer is the perfect next step after Open Water, while achieving the Advanced Open Water Diver rating signifies a much deeper commitment to mastering your diving skills.
An adventure dive gives you a glimpse into a new type of diving, but a full specialty course gives you mastery. Because a specialty course involves more in-depth theory and multiple training dives, you gain a much more comprehensive understanding and a higher level of skill.
For example, after the SSI Deep Diving specialty, you won’t just have been to 40 meters once; you’ll know how to properly plan and execute deep dives with confidence. This deeper knowledge is what truly makes you a safer, more capable diver.
Nusa Penida’s dynamic environment makes it the perfect place to become a highly skilled diver. To get the most out of our world-class sites, we highly recommend a combination of specialties. First, the Waves, Tides & Currents course is essential for safely enjoying our famous drift dives. Second – EAN Nitrox is one of the most useful scuba specialties, allowing you to use Enriched Air Nitrox for your dives, extending your No Decompression Limits and contributing to your safety.
Furthermore, the Perfect Buoyancy specialty will help you conserve air and hover effortlessly over our delicate coral reefs. Finally, completing the Deep Diving specialty allows you to safely explore the deeper sites where you have the best chance of encountering the incredible Mola Mola.
