Specialty

Deep Diver

Learn to plan and safely execute deeper dives, down to 40 meters.

Why take this course

  • Dive safely down to the recreational limit of 40 meters
  • Learn to recognize and manage the effects of nitrogen narcosis
  • An essential foundation for anyone considering technical diving later

The Deep Diver specialty teaches you to plan and safely execute deeper dives, down to the recreational limit of 40 meters. Across four progressively deeper dives, you practice air consumption management, recognizing the effects of nitrogen narcosis, and using a descent/safety line.

It's a specialty that demands more attention to planning and discipline — exactly the kind of skill that separates an intermediate diver from a truly experienced one.
