The lure of the deep. There’s something exciting and mysterious about exploring deeper dive sites while scuba diving. Sometimes it’s a wreck that attracts you below 18 metres/60 feet, and on wall dives it may be a giant fan or sponge. Whatever it is, to scuba dive with confidence at depths down to 40 metres/130 feet, you should take the PADI Deep Diver Specialty course.
Whether your interest is in underwater photography, wreck, search and recovery, or another area; PADI Specialty Instructor courses prepare you to teach the specialty that interests you. You will receive experience in conducting both academic sessions and open water dives, plus tips on how to market and make these courses come alive for you and your students. Below is a full range of specialties our Course Director has to offer.
