Book your Advanced Open Water course with your program for only $430 instead of $475. This is a great opportunity to elevate your diving skills before beginning your conservation training. You will need to plan 3 extra training days before your program starts, allowing you to complete the required dives and build confidence, navigation abilities, buoyancy control, and overall diving proficiency.
