PADI Deep Diver May 2025
We will be running the PADI Deep Diver course on Saturday 17th and Sunday 18th May, at Stoney Cove.
Dive with confidence at depths to 40m, by taking the PADI Deep Diver Specialty course. Learn to assess reasons for going deep, and making sure the dive objective is clear.
You will need to do a small amount of home study before the course, this is all now done with the digital PADI home study eLearning material. You don’t need to come to the shop to get the course arranged and access your digital home study, this part of the course can all be arranged via email and phone call, but of course we would be happy to see you here at the centre to fill all of the paperwork out before hand, you will need to fill out the standard RSTC Medical form and standard PADI Continuing Education forms prior to the dives.
Due to water temperatures in Stoney Cove all year round at depth, we strongly advise you to be drysuit trained for the Deeper dives, where it can drop to 7-8 degrees at 30m. However if you want to do the deeper dives in a wetsuit, it is your choice, but you WILL be cold at depth, please accept we may stop your course if we think you are too cold to continue. The shallow dives at Wraysbury can be done in either a wetsuit or drysuit.
Stoney Cove requires that we/you book your entry tickets into the site, we will need to do this ahead of time, please confirm your space by booking onto the course, we will request the lake entry fee be paid by either cash or bank transfer only, or we can send you the link to book your tickets. Please note that the entry fee costs are not included in your course fees.
We strongly advise you to have a torch for the deeper dives, and a back up, which is safety protocol on deep dives.
