There are 4 dives to be done, on which you will investigate the effects of pressure and light on various objects, as well as perfecting other skills such as dive planning and safety stops, including emergency decompression. The 4 dives are usually split over 2 days and will include one dive to 40m, the limits of recreational diving.

Over the course of 4 dives in 2 days, divers will be shown how to handle a reel, measure wrecks, avoid common hazards and how to handle problems that may occur.
Peak Performance Buoyancy - 2 Dives
Master that buoyancy now! Over the course of 2 dives your instructor will show you how to obtain pin point precision buoyancy. Imagine hovering motionless to take a picture, or not using your BCD for 10 minutes and still being in the perfect position underwater, we will show you how. Save your expensive dive kit from damage, protect the underwater environment, and never trash the visibility again.
Dry Suit Diver - 2 Dives
Bought a drysuit and don't know how to use it? Learn how to use your suit in the calm, clear waters of Lanzarote, before you jump in that freezing cold quarry. Due to the high air temperatures in Lanzarote, it is recommended this course only be done in the winter (Nov - Apr), when it is cooler. You are required to have your own drysuit.
Night Diver - 3 Dives
After just one night dive in the fish rich waters of Puerto Del Carmen you will be longing to do more. On this course you will learn much more about the night time activities on the reef, the nocturnal hunters, the bio-luminescence, what to do if your torch fails, how to navigate at night and many other skills to help prepare you for night time adventures.
Enriched Air Nitrox - 2 Dives
eLearning option now available -
Imagine being able to stay longer, have shorter surface intervals and longer second dives. This is all possible, how? With Nitrox. Nitrox is simply air with extra oxygen added. This means there is less nitrogen, so you can stay down longer, and go back in quicker. During the course you learn the theory behind Nitrox, how to use some new tables, using Nitrox Computers, and how to analyse your gas. The course also includes 2 Nitrox dives that will be compared against 2 air dives so you can see the benefit Nitrox will make to your diving.

Search and Recovery - 4 Dives
During this course you will learn how to locate, rig and lift objects to be raised from the seabed. There are 4 dives on this course, and there are 3 main sections, Location, Rigging & Lifting.
Location will teach you various search techniques to be used when looking for an object, it could be large, like an anchor, or small, like a pair of sunglasses, and the area could be the size of a door, to the size of a tennis court. You will learn which technique to use where.
Rigging is where you are shown how to safely prepare an object for lifting, and will include working with everything from goody bags to ropework with some special knots.
Lifting is the process of recovering the object to the surface, and will involve fun with liftbags. Imagine balancing a 25kg anchor on one finger, it's possible with a liftbag, and we will show you how.
Underwater Naturalist - 2 Dives
The Underwater Naturalist course will take your common diving adventures and add more fun to them once you know more about the marine life.
