Extend your range to recreational depths with the PADI Deep Diver specialty in Ambon on the Banda Sea, where steep walls and the Twilight Zone drop-off invite deeper exploration. You learn to plan and manage dives to a maximum of 40 metres while monitoring gas, narcosis and no-decompression limits, finishing certified as a PADI Deep Diver.
PADI Deep Diver is a specialty that counts toward Master Scuba Diver and can credit the deep Adventure Dive toward Advanced Open Water. The recreational depth limit for this certification is 40 metres.
Deep training uses Ambon's steeper sites and the Twilight Zone drop-off, where the slope continues past recreational depth in warm 27-29°C water. Moderate currents mean dives are planned to the tides; the open Banda Sea is at its best in the March-April and September-November windows.
