Course Description: this course runs over two days and will teach you to perfect your buoyancy. 

Excellent buoyancy control is what defines skilled scuba divers. You've seen them underwater. They glide effortlessly, use less air and ascend, descend or hover almost as if by thought. They more easily observe aquatic life without disturbing their surroundings. You can achieve this, too. The PADI Peak Performance Buoyancy Specialty course improves the buoyancy skills you learned as a new diver and elevates them to the next level.

PADI (Junior) Open Water Divers or higher, who are at least 10 years old, are eligible to take the Peak Performance Buoyancy course.

This advanced dive trip only takes 6 divers so you will be in absolute comfort. Our boats are surveyed for 12 divers, so with only 6 guests on board you will have plenty of space to spread out!
