The SCUBA adventure continues with a skills refresher before heading out for eight open water dives (weather permitting) to earn a NAUI Advanced and Enriched Air – Nitrox SCUBA certification*! Campers will explore new dive environments and gain the skills necessary to plan and execute advanced dives in a safe manner. A certified NAUI SCUBA instructor from The Florida Aquarium Marine Operations staff will lead the skills refresher and open water diving. Campers must be Open Water SCUBA certified by a recognized recreational diving agency (PADI, NAUI, SSI, etc.) before the mandatory parent information session (date to follow in confirmation packet). During this parent information session, participants will receive all waivers and study materials needed for the course. Campers must pass drift diving skills, mapping, navigation, data collection, deep diving and a limited visibility dive in order to obtain their NAUI Advanced SCUBA certification. All waivers must be turned in before June 13, 2025. Campers with asthma, breathing conditions, ear tubes or other medical conditions must provide doctor's approval. Advanced SCUBA certification is not guaranteed. Because of special arrangements, no refunds can be given after June 16, 2025, including refunds for medical conditions. *Advanced SCUBA certification is not guaranteed. Only those who successfully complete all requirements and demonstrate skills will be certified.
