Recreational 2 / Advanced Open Water

Expand Your Diving To Deeper Depths, Night, and Navigation

About this training

Train with purpose.

The Recreational 2 and Advanced Open Water Diver (Rec 2 and AOW) course is the next step for recreational divers to expand their diving to slightly deeper depths with more advanced gases. Rec 2/AOW is a modular class structured to prepare divers for a wider range of environmental conditions and more advanced recreational diving using proper equipment, diving techniques and breathing mixtures including a thorough knowledge of the use of Nitrox.

A personal approach.

Train directly with Jay Gardner in a small team, with a maximum student-to-instructor ratio of 3:1. Connect the skills to real diving, with time for observation, practice, and feedback.

Start with a free 15-minute consultation to discuss your experience, course prerequisites, equipment needs, and what you want to achieve. Training dates are arranged together.
