PADI Deep Diver is a four-dive specialty that certifies you to dive to the recreational maximum of 40 metres. It counts as an Adventure Dive toward Advanced Open Water and counts toward Master Scuba Diver.

Where you'll dive in Cyprus

Cyprus suits deep training because the Zenobia wreck descends past 40 metres, letting you progress safely toward your limit on its lower decks in calm, clear Mediterranean water through the season.
