If you cannot decide which specialty programs are the best choice for you, join the SSI Advanced Open Water Diver program at Get-N-Wet Scuba. You'll try Deep Diving and Navigation, plus a variety of three more specialty areas of your choice, before committing to full specialty training. It's a great way to experience what advanced diver training is all about and how valuable it can be to your diving adventures.

During the Advanced Open Water Diver Program, you'll experience five different specialties by completing one open water training dive per specialty after a comprehensive briefing with your SSI Instructor — a minimum of five dives over two days.

The course runs $450, based out of Lake Hydra, with dive kit and dry suit rental add-ons available.
