How the course works

A dry suit is useful in cold Polish lakes and quarries, and for long Nitrox dives. If you want to use one for technical diving, complete this course and then make about twenty recreational dives in it before a technical dive, so you learn one skill set at a time. See PADI Enriched Air (Nitrox) Diver and PADI Tec 40.

The Tsereve Challenge: Everest in reverse

100+ metres is the Mount Everest of scuba diving. Far fewer people have dived that deep than have stood on top of Everest. Join the challenge: training, warm-up dives and the descent to 100+ m. Start from zero or from any point in your diving, even as a Tec Trimix 65 diver.

The final programme includes a certificate and a t-shirt. We run it in cooperation with Dive Aqaba.
