The PADI Advanced Open Water Diver course in Bohol Panglao certifies you to dive to 30 metres and builds your skills across five adventure dives, including deep and underwater navigation. Panglao suits divers ready to advance, with the coral walls of Balicasag Island, the drift potential at Pamilacan and the easy reefs at Doljo and Napaling all within reach.
The PADI Advanced Open Water course has no exam, just knowledge reviews, and certifies you to 30 metres. The Deep and Underwater Navigation adventure dives are mandatory, and you choose three more from the available specialties.
Adventure dives spread across the deeper walls and drop-offs of Balicasag Island Marine Sanctuary, the drift-prone waters off Pamilacan and the gentle house reefs at Doljo and Napaling, where turtles and schooling tropical fish are common. Warm 27-29C water and the calm December-to-May peak give excellent visibility for the deep and navigation dives.
