The PADI Multilevel
Diver Course
Maximize your dive time so you can explore
more!
In this course, you learn how to plan dives
that extend your bottom time by crediting
you for slower nitrogen absorption when you
ascend to a shallower depth. That’s
the way you really dive, after all.
The Fun Part
This is a great way to learn how to make
multilevel dives even if you forget to bring
your dive computer.
