Dive planning, cave environment, cave diving procedures, techniques, and problem solving form the basis of this level of training. Additional prerequisites for this course include a Cavern certification with 4 cavern dives.

Full Cave Program 7 days, 16 Dives

This comprehensive program is designed for the student who wishes to achieve Full Cave Certification and has no previous training in cavern or cave diving.

Exposure to advanced cave diving situations, including complex navigation, decompression theory, and advanced air planning are also covered at this level of training. The course can be completed in 7 days but an 8-day schedule is more relaxed. If your travel schedule allows extra time, consider scheduling a day off during the course for some rest and sight seeing.

Guided Dives

The guided cave diving service is for divers who are already Intro to Cave certified and wish to tour with a seasoned cave instructor and explorer. The dives are designed around their diving abilities and comfort levels. Extended penetrations with stage tanks and DPVs can easily be arranged for qualified cave divers.

All-inclusive certification programs are available. Technical diving programs are offered. Transportation and equipment can be provided.
