FAQ

It’s been some time since my last dive, can I take the AOW course?

If you feel unconfident, we recommend you take the Scuba Refresher session with us, a 1 pool session to review diving basic skills.

I’ve just completed my open water diver certification, should I wait some time before I take AOW?

There is absolutely no need to wait. Once you’re open water certified you can take the advanced open water course anytime you like.

Is there as much studying as OW course for the AOW course?

 

Not at all, there is very limited studying and preparations. The advanced open water course is a practical training where we primarily focus on achieving specific objectives and completing the essential skills.

 

Can I take the Nitrox specialty while taking AOW?

 

Yes, you can combine the Nitrox specialty with the advanced open water course and we offer a discount discount should you decide to sign up both courses together! Enquire to find out more! 

Please read through the medical questionnaire carefully. If you have to answer any of the medical conditions with a “yes”, then you need to seek approval by a doctor prior to any in-water activities.
