If you are looking for an adventure where you will earn a PADI Advanced Scuba certification and help the reef environment, then this is the adventure for you.

Whether you are doing a night dive on the reef or a deep dive to gain experience, the Advanced class will definitely enhance your diving skills. You will be doing 11 or more dives, including a night dive (weather permitting). Our Crew / Troop is out of Holmes County, Ohio.
