      Deeper into understanding.

      Deep Diving will guide you through planning deeper dives, their risks and working with equipment. The aim of the speciality is training to the 40-metre limit when the relevant conditions are met.

    NO QUESTION IS TOO SILLY

    Before you
    dive in.

    Do I need all 12 dives before the course?

    No. For Specialty Diver recognition, you can complete them even after finishing both specialisations. Entry requires OWD or equivalent and an age of at least 15 years.

    Do I have to complete both courses at the same time?

    No. You arrange the order and dates individually.

    How do I arrange the start?

    After ordering, register at my.divessi.com and select Divers Direct 722162. Arrange dates by emailing potapeni@divers.cz or calling +420 725 316 772.

    Can I study in English as well?

    Yes, English materials are also available and, by arrangement, an English-speaking instructor.

    How long do I have access to the materials?

    Once activated, they remain yours permanently. We usually activate access within one working day after payment.

    Why dive
    s Divers?

    Individual approach

    One instructor at our school always teaches a sensible number of students. We never push things to the limit and give every student 100% of our attention.

    Professional instructors

    Every one of our instructors and divemasters lives and breathes diving, loves teaching, and passes that enthusiasm on. We are a team of enthusiasts who will draw you into the world of diving.

    Quality training

    We maintain high standards and take no shortcuts. Safety, fun, efficiency and ecology too – that is the foundation of every course we run.

    Flexible dates

    We will agree on training dates that suit you. Flexibility is a given for us and we always do our utmost to accommodate you.

    Our own 8m diving pit

    We train in the deepest pit in the Czech Republic – at Aquapalace Praha in Čestlice. There we have ideal conditions for pool training, and it shows in our divers.

    We don’t end with the course

    With us you can continue – lectures, training sessions, trips, expeditions, follow-on courses. And on top of that, a 10% discount on equipment and other courses.

    A great community

    Divers Direct is more than a school – it is a community. Lectures, evenings in the clubhouse, experiences that bring people together.
