Woodbridge SCUBA's Deep Diver specialty course is designed for certified Open Water divers seeking to safely extend their depth range. This program focuses on the physiological and psychological aspects of diving beyond 18 meters (60 feet), up to a maximum of 40 meters (130 feet). You will learn crucial techniques for managing gas consumption, understanding nitrogen narcosis, and the procedures for planning and executing deeper dives. The curriculum emphasizes risk mitigation and the importance of proper dive planning for these advanced environments.

The course covers essential equipment considerations for deep diving, including the use of dive computers and potentially redundant air sources. Participants will gain practical knowledge on calculating gas requirements, ascent rates, and the necessity of safety stops and potential decompression procedures. The training at Woodbridge SCUBA aims to build confidence and competence in handling the challenges associated with diving at greater depths. This specialty is a vital step for divers interested in exploring deeper reefs, wrecks, or other underwater formations.
