Curso Advanced Open Water

The PADI Advanced Open Water Diver course at La Fée Plongée is your next step to unlocking deeper and more diverse underwater exploration. This program builds directly on your Open Water certification, introducing you to five distinct adventure dives designed to enhance your skills and confidence. Two core dives are mandatory: Deep Diving, which will safely guide you to a maximum depth of 30 meters (100 feet), and Underwater Navigation, crucial for confidently finding your way beneath the surface. These dives are conducted in the local dive sites accessible from La Fée Plongée, allowing you to apply new techniques in real-world conditions.

The waters around the center offer varied conditions throughout the year. While July and August boast the warmest sea temperatures, reaching up to 26.4°C, other months provide different experiences. For instance, April offers a pleasant 14.5°C air temperature with relatively low rainfall of 47mm, making it suitable for focused training. The specific marine life and underwater topography encountered will depend on the chosen adventure dives, which can range from exploring wrecks to practicing peak performance buoyancy.

La Fée Plongée, a PADI-certified dive center, ensures a high standard of training. While specific instructor-to-student ratios are not detailed, the center's 5-star Google rating reflects a strong commitment to customer satisfaction and quality instruction. The course includes all necessary theory materials and your PADI certification upon successful completion of the dives, providing a verifiable credential for your expanded diving capabilities.

To enroll in the PADI Advanced Open Water Diver course, you must hold a PADI Open Water Diver certification or an equivalent from another recognized agency. A medical statement signed by a physician is also required to ensure you are fit to dive. The course fee of 590 EUR covers the instruction, materials, and certification. Participants are expected to bring their own basic dive gear, with specialized equipment for certain adventure dives potentially available through the center.

This certification is a significant milestone, opening up a wider range of dive sites and experiences. With your Advanced Open Water Diver qualification, you'll be prepared for more challenging dives, including those requiring deeper descents or specific techniques learned during your adventure dives. It serves as a prerequisite for further PADI specialties and the PADI Rescue Diver course, continuing your journey as a proficient and knowledgeable diver.
