Imagine descending below the surface of a clear mountain lake to explore a well-preserved wreck. Interested? Any time you scuba dive at an altitude higher than 300 metres/1000 feet above sea level, you're altitude diving. If you're ready to discover a hidden world where few have ventured, then the PADI Altitude Diver Specialty course is for you.

Learning to adjust your dive plan for the reduced surface pressure at altitude is an important part of the course. You'll complete two scuba dives and learn:

• Altitude dive planning, organization, procedures and techniques.
• How to adjust your dive computer for altitude diving or calculate altitude dive profiles using the RDP Table or eRDPMLTM.
• How to avoid problems and handle emergency situations, if they occur, at altitude.

Prerequisites

• PADI (Junior) Open Water Diver certification (or qualifying entry-level certification from another organization)
• Minimum age is 10 years
• A Medical Questionnaire must be completed by all participants.

*Rental gear is not included, except weights & tanks
