Bucejador Open Water Avançat

The Advanced Open Water Diver course at Sea Angels runs through five specialty dives, going to a maximum depth of 30 metres. The rate is 25,000 RUB per person under either SSI or PADI; study materials and certification are billed separately (SSI 12,000 RUB, PADI 17,300 RUB). The course requires a valid Open Water Diver certification as a prerequisite. The club certifies through both SSI and PADI, and students choose at sign-up which card they want.

The five dives are structured around specialty topics — the specific combination depends on the certification agency and what the student wants to focus on. The club offers a wide range of specialty options: deep diving, navigation, buoyancy, wreck, night diving, drift, nitrox, photography, and others. The AOWD course is typically the vehicle through which students get structured exposure to two or three of these areas before pursuing full specialty certifications separately.

Dives for the AOWD can be done in Moscow-region open water during summer or during a club dive trip. The club runs travel to destinations including the Red Sea, and some students use a trip as the opportunity to complete the AOWD dives in warmer, clearer conditions than a Moscow lake offers. The combination of pool-adjacent scheduling and trip-based open water completion gives practical flexibility.

The club has been running AOWD courses for more than fifteen years alongside the full professional and specialty catalogue. Instructors hold qualifications across PADI, SSI, NDL, and CMAS. For divers who have their OWD and want to push further in a structured way before committing to individual specialty certifications, this course covers the most ground per course fee.
