Course overview

The PADI Deep Diver specialty extends your limit to 40m and opens up Sharm El Sheikh's deeper sites, from the SS Thistlegorm's cargo holds to the walls of Ras Mohammed where the reef drops into the blue. Across four dives you learn to manage narcosis, gas planning and the colour shift at depth. It is the key to the Red Sea's deepest dive sites.
