The course is built around deep diving, underwater navigation and search and recovery, with an instructor beside you on every entry. This is the next step for people who already feel at home as Open Water divers and want more range. 📋 Key Details Duration: 2 to 3 days Dives: 5 adventure dives Focus: Deep diving, underwater navigation, search and recovery Certification: PADI Advanced Open Water Diver Location: Port de Sóller, Mallorca 🎯 Key Skills Planning and completing a deeper dive Underwater navigation with natural marks and a compass Search patterns and basic recovery skills Building confidence on new types of site Sharper buoyancy and dive thinking after Open Water 🥽 What to Expect Five dives, not a classroom week. Each entry has a job: going deeper with a clear plan, finding a way back without following the boat, or working a simple search. Briefings happen on the harbour and on the boat, then the water does the teaching while the instructor stays close enough to correct a heading or a descent before it becomes a habit. Two or three days is enough to feel the difference between a fun dive and a dive with a purpose. Conditions around Port de Sóller decide the order, so deep work might wait for a calmer morning and navigation might take the clearer site. By the last dive the group should feel more useful underwater, not simply more certified. 📍 Location The northwest coast around Port de Sóller gives this course real variety in a small area. Rocky ground, slightly deeper water outside the bay and the shelter of the harbour sit close enough that five dives do not need a long transfer. The meeting point is at Port de Sóller harbour, a short walk from the quays. The boat leaves that same harbour each morning, so kit stays near the classroom talk and nobody spends the day chasing a distant slipway. ✅ Prerequisites This course is the next step after Open Water, for divers who already hold that certification and want more experience. Deep work, navigation and search dives ask for calm breathing and a willingness to think underwater, not brand-new scuba skills. Bring recent dive time if you have it, and say so if it has been a while. We confirm readiness before the first morning so the five dives can stay ambitious without skipping the basics that keep a buddy pair safe. ⭐ Why Choose Us Port de Sóller is our harbour base, and it has been for mor… ### Essential information _None._ ### What’s included PADI Advanced Open Water course over 2 to 3 days 5 adventure dives Deep diving, underwater navigation and search and recovery dives PADI Advanced Open Water Diver certification on successful completion ### What’s not included Transport to and from the meeting point Meals and drinks during the course Accommodation ### Kit list Swimwear Towel Sunscreen and a hat for the boat A change of clothes for after the dives Certification card and logbook if you have them ## FAQs ### How long is the course? The course runs over two to three days, with five adventure dives in that window. The exact shape of the days depends on sea conditions and how the group is progressing. Start dates are offered daily at 10:00, subject to confirmation. The five dives sit together across those two or three days. ### What do the five dives cover? The dives specialise in activities such as deep diving, underwater navigation and search and recovery. Those three give a real taste of how Advanced Open Water is meant to feel: a job on every dive, not only a scenic swim. Your instructor sets the order to match the morning. A calmer sea might take the deeper dive first; clearer water is a gift for navigation. ### Do I need to be an Open Water diver already? Yes. This is the next step after Open Water, designed to advance diving after the first certification. Those skills are the starting point, not something we reteach from scratch. If it has been a while since the last logged dive, tell us so we can plan the course. Extra time on the basics can sit before the adventure dives if you need it. ### What certification will I receive? The card you work toward is PADI Advanced Open Water Diver. That sits above Open Water and is the usual door into more ambitious diving. Each adventure dive is signed off as it is completed. Certification is issued through PADI once all five dives and the related knowledge work are done. ### Where do the dives take place? Boat days start from Port de Sóller harbour. Dives leave that same quay. Sites just outside the bay give a mix of slightly deeper water and rocky ground that suits navigation and search work. Your instructor chooses the site for each dive on the morning. ### What happens if the weather turns? Adventure dives need a usable sea. If the morning is too rough for a deep or search dive, that session is moved rather than forced. Navigation or a shallower site might still run when a deeper plan cannot. We'll say as early as possible if a day needs to shift. ### What should I bring? A towel, swimwear, sunscreen and a spare set of clothes are the boat essentials. Bring your certification card and logbook if you have them. Anything else is confirmed before the first morning. Loose valuables are better left at the accommodation. ### Is this only for people who want to go deep? Deep diving is one part of the five dives, not the whole course. Navigation and search and recovery are just as important, and many divers find those the skills they use most afterwards. The aim is a more experienced, confident diver, not a single deeper number in a logbook. Your instructor keeps the deep dive inside the limits that suit the group and the site. ### Will I dive with an instructor the whole time? Yes. Professional instructors guide every adventure dive. Briefings, in-water supervision and a debrief are part of each entry. That is how confidence is built: someone who knows the site is watching the plan, the heading and the air, and telling you honestly what to tidy up next time. ## Media - **Primary image URL (resolved in app; may be absolute)**: https://adventuro.com/cdn-cgi/image/width=1200,format=auto,quality=90/https://media.adventuro.com/public/0ab94617-e665-489d-b045-47d031c83336/19eca9f7-1042-4f23-a0a9-5a30e1836d57/original.jpg - **Gallery image count**: 6 ## Limitations - Availability, exact session times, and final price may depend on the live booking flow. - This Markdown is generated from the same catalog fields as the public HTML page at the canonical URL above.
