Extend your range to the recreational limit with the PADI Deep Diver specialty in Hikkaduwa, where deeper reef ledges and shipwrecks reward divers who venture beyond 18 metres. Over four dives you learn to plan and manage deep dives safely, monitoring gas, time and narcosis to a maximum of 40 metres. You finish certified as a PADI Deep Diver, qualified to dive within recreational deep limits.
The PADI Deep Diver specialty certifies you to the 40-metre recreational limit and counts toward the Master Scuba Diver rating. The four training dives can credit toward Advanced Open Water if not already held.
Deep dives use Hikkaduwa's deeper reef ledges and shipwrecks, which reach into the 30-metre range and beyond; the calm, clear November-to-April season provides the stable water and visibility needed for safe deep diving.
