WHAT IS THE ADVANCED CERTIFICATION?
Usually, the Advanced Certification, called in PADI Advanced Open Water Certificate, is your second step in the world of diving. Once you’ve completed your Open Water and know the basics about this sport, then is time to take a step further and get more skills. With the Advanced Certificate, you’ll be able to arrive up to 30 meters and you could also enjoy some night diving among other stuff. In Koh Tao, you’ll see the stunning wreck HTMS Sattakut, landed 30 meters below the water.
In this course, you’ll enjoy five different dives, each of them with a special skill to be taught. You will be given a computer and a compass, so you’ll have more control in your dives. You will get information about the different type of dives and how to arrive to the good spots for diving.
Then, in these five dives, you’ll be able to complete your skills in buoyancy (you’ll do some exercise like Buda or crossing a goal), navigation (you’ll find the boat or the target with your compass), night dive (a torch will be given to you), deep (up to 30 metres, probably at Chumphon), and wreck.
HOW MUCH DOES IT COST THE ADVANCE CERTIFICATION COURSE IN KOH TAO?
Prices might vary from one school to another and some can offer you discounts if you’ve made with them the Open Water already. Besides, you can also check our packages and discounts to get a better price in your Advance Course in Koh Tao. However, prices are around 10.000 bahts for these five dives and you’ll get your certification.
WHY SHOULD I GET THE ADVANCED CERTIFICATION IN KOH TAO?
You’ve already tried diving and you like it a lot. Then it’s time for your second step. Why don’t you go deeper and find some other animals? Why missing the wrecks laying below 20 meters? Why not seen rays during night dives? For all these reasons, we think it’s a must to get the Advanced.
Besides, Koh Tao is the perfect place to learn all these activities. In Chumphon you’ll be able to go as deep as 30 meters -even deeper if you want to get your deep specialty- and you can also enjoy some wreck diving at the HTMS Sattakut. Besides, while doing your course, you will admire rays and many other animals.
