Learn to dive on Koh Tao with its most popular diving certification. The Open Water Course. The course is divided into 2 academic sessions, 1 shallow water training session (normally in a pool) where we practice the skills required for diving, and 4 open water dives in the ocean. Once you have completed everything, you will have a diving certification to 18m and then it is on to the next level.
The Advanced course is our second most popular diving certification on Koh Tao and is often done straight after the open water course. If you combine both courses in 5 days you go from beginner to advance and be able to dive to 30m. If you are traveling around Asia being certified to dive to 30m will give you much a greater choice of dive sites.
Wrecks have a great many hazards to be aware of and you should not treat them as simple fun dives. The Wreck Diver course covers these topics and opens up so many more dive sites to explore safely.
A lot of these dive sites go down below 30m, the depth limit for Advanced. So why not study for the Deep Diver Specialty scuba diving certification on Koh Tao and be able to go to 40m!
The Enriched Air Nitrox courses, or nitrox for short, will teach you how to safely plan and dive with enriched air mixtures of up to 40% oxygen. Diving on Koh Tao or anywhere with nitrox can increase your no-decompression limits. Reducing the required length of your surface intervals when compared to air increases your safety. There are 2 nitrox courses 32% and 40%
The final training for the specialty diver course takes 3 to 4 days where we combine the First Aid and Rescue Diver courses. You will study additional theory beyond what you have learned in your previous Koh Tao diving courses. Develop and practice rescue skills in shallow water that will include responding to diver emergencies, and self-rescue techniques.
In addition, you learn accident management, emergency care, and first aid for common aquatic life injuries. Plus problem-solving on the surface and underwater. Responding to equipment problems and first aid for diving-related injuries.
You can get a private room in Sairee close to the shops, restaurants, and bars but still quiet enough to get a good night’s sleep or we have a cheap dorm for those on a budget.
This package costs 60,000b and you need to pay a deposit of 20% in advance. But you can change the course start date as many times as you need in these uncertain times with sufficient notice.
