A Deep Diver Course is a must for any diver wishing to explore a little more and go a little deeper, your instructor will teach you the risks and benefits associated with deep diving. Many interesting sights lay just beyond open water diver training limits such as beautiful wall dives, shipwrecks, and critters that don’t come into the shallows. The purpose of this course is to provide the necessary training to plan and execute dives that are beyond the depth range experienced during an SDI Open Water Scuba Diver course, specifically beyond 18 meters and to a maximum depth of not greater than 40 meters. By the end of the course, your knowledge, awareness, and comfort will all improve during the course with us here at Big Blue Tech
With SDI Deep Diver online learning, you can complete all of the academics prior to arriving here at Big Blue Tech, the course materials are then available to you at any time after the course allowing you to refresh your SDI Deep Diver course at any time.

Your instructor will discuss all the pertinent points regarding Deep diving, including reasons to deep dive, equipment choice, physical and physiological stress, gas consumption, basic gas laws, potential risks and most importantly how to minimise these.
After a lunch break you will head out on the boat for your deep dives.
