Why take the PADI Advanced class?

After your five dives, you'll be more experienced, feel more comfortable in the water and simply enjoy diving more
because you better understand the underwater environment.

You will learn the correct way to navigate so you can return back to the boat or shore, dive deeper, dive at night,
plus you will be able to select two other elective dives from those listed below.  You will be doing five dives in one
weekend with two of those off a local Monterey dive boat!

Just $100.00 will hold you a spot for the next class.  Class size is limited.
What do I need to start?

You will need to have obtained a PADI Open Water Diver certification or a qualifying certification from another
organization and be at least 15 years old or 12 years to enroll in the PADI Junior Advanced Open Water Diver
course.
