This
course is great for those who have just completed the Open
Water diver certification or have been inactive for
a period of time. Our
Adventure diver program consists of 3 PADI Adventure Dives; Navigation,
Night, and Buoyancy. Each dive teaches important skills and techniques
that build confidence and prepare you for diving in the local waters
surrounding Long Island. Diving here can be challenging at times,
the skills you learn on these three dives will help you be more comfortable
in the water wherever you decide to go diving.
We offer the adventure diver
program from May through October. These dives are conducted
in the Long Island Sound
from our dive boat "Sport Diver 2". Check our
schedule to find out when these dives are offered.
Requirements:
You must be a certified diver to take this class. If you do not own a
full set of scuba gear it can be rented but as always we reccomend
that you try and obtain as much of your own gear as possible. You will
be more comfortable and get more out of the training dives if you are
using the same equipment on every dive. When you rent your equipment
there is no way this can be guaranteed. In addition to your standard
scuba system you will be required to have the following items.
• Adventures
In Diving Textbook
• Compass
• Primary and Backup Dive Light
• Guideline Reel
• Dive Knife
• Slate
The compass will be used on the navigation
adventure dive. The compass and 2 dive lights will be used
on the night dive. The guideline reel, dive lights and
lift bag or marker buoy will be used on the wreck dive.
The Dive knife is carried on every dive and used as a tool
mainly for freeing oneself from entanglement should this
occur.The slate is carried on every dive and is used for
communication.

Water Scuba class with School of Fish are eligible for
a reduced rate on rental equipment when taking this class
within one month of completing their Open Water training
dives.
