Why PADI Deep Diver Specialty?
Have you ever peered over a wall and wondered what's hiding just a bit deeper? The PADI Deep Diver specialty trains you to handle the increased risks of deep diving while exploring the hidden world that lies down to 40m/130ft. You can also extend your dives by combining it with the PADI Enriched Air Nitrox Specialty.
