You want to learn to dive, but want to get to the next level too?
Taking the Open Water Course and Advanced Adventurer Course Package gives you the opportunity to learn to dive and then build on all the new skills you have gained.
With just 2 extra days of diving on top of your Open Water Course you will be certified as a Advanced Adventurer, extending your dive depth limits to a maximum of 30m, becoming a more skilled and relaxed diver with improved control and confidence underwater.
The 2 courses only take 5 days in total to complete and become an accomplished Advanced Adventuer Diver.
You will be accompanied and instructed at your own pace by one of our multilingual Instructors, who will teach you from the beginning to the end to go from novice to advanced.
We teach all courses at your pace, which makes it the perfect holiday experience!

Fitness
To become a scuba diver, you don’t need to be an athlete or hardcore fit. You just need to have the passion and be open-minded to try something new.
Waterskills & Stamina
It will help though, if you generally feel comfortable in the water and have some basic swimming abilities (as there is a little swim test to prove that you can float or tread water for 10 minutes and swim 200 metres unaided). If in doubt, just ask us for other course options.
Minimum Age
To start this package, you will need to be at least 12 years old. As a diver 12 – 15 year old you will gain the certification as a Junior Open Water Diver and you will have to dive with an adult until 15 years of age. Please note, that 12-15 year old divers are limited to 21 metres of depth.
Medical Statement
You need to be medically fit for diving. You find the Medical Statement for Scuba Diving here to download. If in doubt, please check with your physician or ask us before booking your dive experience with us.

FAQ – Frequently Asked Questions
display:none
Can I start my courses every day?
In general, yes. We start our courses any given day. To secure your desired start date, we recommend booking your courses online here. This will guarantee your placement in a small group of maximum 4 students per Instructor.
Is it possible to change the schedule for the courses?
Our schedules are flexible and we will do everything to adjust it to your travel plans. Please contact us to arrange for a schedule that suits you within the limits of the Open Water Diver Course and Advanced Adventurer Course performance requirements.
Are there shorter course options available for my courses?
Yes! We can accommodate for your travel plans and as long as you feel comfortable in the water. Contact us at any time for more information.
What are the rates for accommodation for my courses?
For your Open Water Course and Advanced Adventurer Course we offer accommodation in a private AC room (choice of Double or Twin) at a discounted rate for the standard course duration of 5 nights. There are also upgrade options available for the adjacent Koh Tao Regal or Beach Club Resort. More information here or just contact us directly.
What are the minimum requirements to start my courses?
The minimum requirements for you to enroll in the courses are listed here: COURSE PREREQUISITES. If you still have questions about specific requirements or an equivalent certification, please contact us directly.
How many students will be together with me in my courses?
We pride ourselves to teach our courses personally in groups of max. 4 students per Instructor. If you still prefer a smaller group or a private course please contact us directly. On the other hand, if you travel in a bigger group, please let us know and we will arrange for multiple Instructors to teach you together.
Will I see different dive sites during my courses?
We have 3 custom built dive boats and choose the dive sites based on your course requirements, comfort level and weather conditions. Generally, we change dive sites on a daily basis, so you will dive at the best spots available for your Open Water Course and Advanced Adventurer Course. More about our boats here.
Can I take a Go Pro on my dives for the courses?
We highly discourage from taking a camera as you and your instructor should both focus only on you becoming a well-trained scuba diver and handling a camera with the new equipment at the same time is not easy. Our In-House Video & Photo company Crystal Images provides perfect pictures or amazing underwater videos for you for a small surcharge. Check out this link: Video-Option.
What other courses can I take if I have some more time?
We have put together some recommendations for you under this link for dive activities that you may find interesting after your courses. If you are interested in other activities, have a look at our shop and check out our multi-course packages as well.
