The Upgrade: Open Water & Advanced Open Water Combo

This combo allows you to build experience immediately after certification, while everything is fresh.

You will:

  • Complete Open Water certification

  • Continue directly into Advanced Open Water dives

  • Gain depth experience and site variety

  • Finish with more confidence and comfort underwater

There are no exams in Advanced Open Water.
The focus is simply on diving more, in different conditions.

Why Upgrading Now Makes Financial Sense

✔ Lower total cost than adding Advanced later
✔ No repeated briefings or setup
✔ Best value per dive
✔ More experience in a shorter time

Many divers complete Open Water, then later return for Advanced.
This upgrade simply avoids paying more for the same progression.
