Advanced PADI open water & Enriched air course

Experience the ultimate scuba diving adventure at Pro Dive Cairns! Join them for the Advanced PADI open water & Enriched air course, where you can take your diving skills to the next level. This course combines the PADI Advanced Open Water and Nitrox Enriched Air Certification, giving you advanced knowledge and the ability to use enriched air instead of compressed air.

Why use nitrox? Well, it allows you to extend your bottom time and reduce your nitrogen load, making it perfect for those liveaboard trips. And where better to learn than the stunning classroom of The Great Barrier Reef? With its incredible marine life, diverse dive sites, and excellent diving conditions year-round, this is the perfect environment to enhance your diving knowledge and skills.

The course starts with the theory component, which you can complete before the trip. This means you can maximise your time underwater and get the most out of your nitrox dives. No formal classroom or pool training sessions are involved, making it a seamless and enjoyable experience.

During the trip, you'll have access to 19 outer reef dive sites, including Flynn, Thetford, Milln, and Pellowe Reef. With dives scheduled at various times throughout the day, you'll have the opportunity to encounter a diverse range of marine life – from giant clams and sea turtles to stingrays, reef sharks, and a wide variety of tropical fish. The spectacular coral formations and exceptional underwater visibility will provide a breathtaking backdrop for your dives. And don't forget about night diving, where you'll get to explore a whole new world of nocturnal marine life.

Pro Dive Cairns' three premium Scubapro dive vessels offer comfortable bunk bed or double bed cabins, spacious decks, and catered meals – ensuring your comfort and enjoyment between dives. With small passenger numbers, you'll experience a personalised adventure with dedicated attention from their professional staff.

Departing from Cairns daily (except on Mondays and Tuesdays), their three-day, two-night liveaboard trips offer an unforgettable way to fully immerse yourself in the World Heritage Great Barrier Reef. Safety is their top priority, so before starting the course, you'll be required to complete a self-assessment Continuing Education Student Diver Medical Declaration. If you have any pre-existing conditions that may affect your safety while diving, they recommend consulting a medical practitioner experienced in diving medicine and obtaining a dive medical certificate stating you are fit to dive.

To ensure a smooth experience, they recommend visiting their retail shop the night before your trip. There, you can arrange the necessary equipment, complete the paperwork, and ensure your certification details are correct.
