The cooler waters house some of the worlds most amazing wrecks, wildlife such as basking sharks and seals, soft corals and the kelp forest – experiences you cannot find in warm water.

If you have the right exposure protection you can not only dive all year round but in the cooler waters, even the Artic. Dry suit diving gives you these opportunities.

The PADI Dry Suit Specialty will provide you with the knowledge and skills you will need to dive safely in a dry suit. You will gain experience of using a dry suit, practice the different techniques involved and explore the different considerations of owning and using a dry suit.

PADI DRYSUIT COURSE DESCRIPTION

The course takes 1 evening pool session and 1 day’s diving to complete.

In advance of the open water dives, you will need to complete the specialist E-Learning

POOL SESSION

The pool session can either take place at New Malden Leisure Centre on Wednesday night, Putney Leisure Centre on a Friday night.

Here you will become familiar with the specialist techniques for diving in a dry suit whilst in shallow water.

OPEN WATER DIVES

On the two open water dives you will gain experience using a dry suit and demonstrate a number of the skills you learned in the pool session. A particular focus will be on buoyancy.

At Aquanaut we can either run the Dry Suit specialty in in conjunction with the Open Water or Advanced Open Water Course, or as a standalone on any one of our numerous trips to Wraysbury, Vobster or Stoney Cove.
