Formation PE40

The Niveau 2 is the main intermediate certification at Corsica Sub and the qualification that opens the deeper wreck and reef sites of Cap Corse. With this level, you can dive autonomously to 20m and with an instructor to 40m, which covers the Insuma (42m with escort), Le Poisson Lune (45m), A Squalliare Le Canyon (35m), and A Scorpina (38m). The Insuma is the standout dive — a WWII anti-submarine vessel torpedoed in 1943, with intact cannons, a propeller, large groupers, congers, and occasional sunfish.

The course runs a minimum of 8 dives and two theory modules. Content covers assisting a diver in difficulty, dive planning within a director's framework, depth management, and decompression procedures. The price is 630€ including certification; equipment rental is extra. Minimum age is 16; minors need parental consent. A medical certificate and proof of prior certification (Niveau 1 or equivalent) are required.

Two theory modules give the Niveau 2 more classroom weight than the entry-level courses. Maud and Rémi handle the full programme. From Niveau 2, the path continues to PA40 (autonomous depth to 40m, requiring 20 logged dives) and ultimately to Niveau 3, which opens the 60m zone and the deepest sites in the Cap Corse area.
