Ready to take your underwater exploration to the next level? The Advanced Open Water Diver course in [destination] is your next step. Designed to build confidence and expand your scuba skills, this certification exposes you to new diving environments and experiences. It’s a perfect blend of excitement and practical learning, where every dive opens up a whole new world of possibilities beneath the waves. This course is all about the experience, which is why we skip the classroom sessions entirely. Over two days, you'll complete five adventure dives, making it a highly enjoyable and hands-on certification. Your learning path is flexible, guided by your instructor to suit your interests. We offer flexible scheduling, with the date and time for your second day of diving arranged at your convenience during your first session. Your training consists of two mandatory dives—Deep and Underwater Navigation—and three additional adventure dives of your choosing. The Deep Dive explores the practical aspects of diving deeper and how your body responds, while the Underwater Navigation dive hones your ability to use kick-cycles, visual landmarks, and time to find your way. You'll also perfect your buoyancy and streamlining techniques during the Peak Performance Buoyancy dive, with two more dives selected based on your personal adventure goals. To ensure you have a seamless experience, your course includes all scuba equipment, tanks, the boat charter, a professional instructor, and refreshments. The requirements are simple: you must be at least 10 years old, in good general health, and already hold an Open Water Diver certification or an equivalent. We prioritize your safety and will always operate within the limits of your training. Upon completion, you will have the skills to dive deeper, extend your bottom time, and gain access to dive sites reserved exclusively for advanced divers. A whole new realm of exciting locations, from mysterious wrecks and stunning cenotes to other challenging dives around the globe, will now be open for you to explore.

Melanie
I had an absolutely fantastic weekend doing my orientation dive (and fun dives) with Ocean Divers at Killary Fjord! From the moment I arrived every member of staff and all the other divers were incredibly welcoming, friendly and helpful. The atmosphere was supportive and relaxed, making it easy to feel comfortable even if you’re just starting out like me (10 dives previously). There were a lot of divers, but each in small groups with their own dive master or dive instructor and grouped together in the OW/AOW courses or fun dives. While I had already done my OW elsewhere, I’ll definitely be doing the advanced course and further dives with these guys as the level of dedication and commitment that goes into making their students be successful divers is visible. Bring a bit of patience for the initial response period if you reach out during a very busy time - it‘s hard to respond when you’re always in the water 😄 but I honestly can’t recommend them enough if you’re looking to become a good diver and explore Irelands underwater world with a genuinely lovely group of people.

I’m doing the drysuit diver course with Oceandivers at the moment. I was having trouble getting my buoyancy right, so had six pool sessions to get it right at no extra charge!! What a crew Oceandivers have. There was no pressure, just take your time and get it right. Dan is always on hand to help you out and the rest of the lads are so helpful. I had my first sea dive for the buoyancy certification today off Dalkey island. It was fantastic!! The extra lessons really paid off. I cannot recommend the Oceandivers crew highly enough. It is and has been a pleasure working with Oceandivers to get my drysuit certification. Can’t wait to get back in the water with the crew!!

Great enjoy my training with him and also thank other instructors, divemasters and staffs from Oceandivers.

Amazing experience on my Open Water Diving Course with Oceandivers Ireland! The instructors are all professional, patient, and safety-focused. Training was well-structured, with great dive sites and top-notch equipment. Richard was my instructor and had so much patience with us all while also ensuring we had fun too! Highly recommend. Can’t wait to return! 🌊🤿

I have just completed my Open Water Diver qualification with Oceandivers. It was a fantastic experience from start to finish. My instructor Alan was so knowledgeable and really took the time to ensure we were all comfortable with the skills needed. In addition the dive masters on the crew were a great support and help as it was a completely new environment for me, Dan in particular was amazing. I would highly recommend Oceandivers to anyone looking to enter the diving world. Thanks to Alan and his team for a great debut to diving.
