Adventure Diver Certification
If you've completed your Open Water
rating and are looking for a fun way to further expand your knowledge
and skills, the Adventure Diver (AD) program is ideal for you!
The AD rating is all DIVING! There are essentially no classroom
sessions -- just a bit of independent reading in the Adventure Diver
manual! Our resident IDC Staff Instructor and Master Scuba
Diver Trainer with over 400 dives, leads these classes.
Open water dives for our AD courses are done here in the Denver area (Aurora
and Chatfield reservoirs) during warmer months, and at the Blue Hole in Santa
Rosa, NM during the cooler months (mid-Oct through mid-May). You can also
complete your AD open water dives during any of our special dive trips to
SeaBase in Utah or to off-shore locations in the Caribbean, South Pacific,
etc.
The AD rating involves 3 specialty dives. You and your instructor will
agree on the 3 specialty areas that will expose you to a wider range of diving
skills and environments. Location and conditions will dictate which specialty
areas can be sampled. Your 3 AD Open Water Dives are usually selected from
the following specialty areas:
The AD rating can be completed in one day, or in one weekend. Did
we say one weekend? Yes -- and we'll be running this course at least once
each month. Call us for dates & times and then get ready for your SCUBA
Adventure!
