Your next step after Open Water
If you've finished your Open Water course and want to dive more confidently, this is the course for you. You'll try new types of diving with an instructor beside you and come away with the certification many dive sites and boats ask for. You can sign up straight after Open Water; you don't need lots of logged dives first.
Workshop, eLearning, then five adventure dives
eLearning – Read up on each adventure dive online before the trip. There's no final exam; short knowledge reviews keep you on track.
Buoyancy workshop – A pool session in Klang Valley to fine-tune your buoyancy before you go to sea: trimming your weights, hovering still and moving without stirring up the bottom. Better buoyancy means less effort, less air used and more time to look around.

Deep Adventure Dive (required)
Underwater Navigation Adventure Dive (required)
[ELECTIVE 1 – e.g. Peak Performance Buoyancy]

Frequently asked questions
Do I need lots of dives before I can do Advanced?
No. You can start right after your Open Water course. The adventure dives are designed to build experience with an instructor alongside you.
Why is the open water trip separate?
So you can do the pool training in Klang Valley at your own pace, then pick the trip date that suits you.
Is the deep dive scary?
Your instructor plans it with you, briefs you on what to expect and stays with you throughout. You'll go deeper gradually and learn how depth affects your air, colours and how you feel.
Can I choose my elective dives?
Yes, you can. It depends on the dive sites and conditions. But yes, you can choose your preferred elective dives.
Why is there a buoyancy workshop in a pool?
Buoyancy is the skill that most improves your diving. Practising it in calm, clear water first means you arrive on the trip ready to make the most of every dive.
What do I need to bring?
Swimwear, a towel and sunscreen. All the scuba gear is provided.
