Coconut Tree Divers, Honduras

Wind your way through narrow swimthroughs. Hang upside down to spot that hidden lobster. Hover effortlessly along a wall. The PPB specialty fine-tunes your ability to control your lung volume, trim your weights, and reduce your air consumption. Excellent when combined with the PADI Digital Underwater Photographer specialty, or at the end of your PADI Open Water Diver course to set you on the right track with buoyancy control at the very start of your diving career.

Capture your vacation memories! The PADI Digital Underwater Photographer specialty introduces you to basic photography techniques and terminology, allowing you to snap the best possible pictures underwater. Since buoyancy is a critical part of good underwater photography, you can enhance your photographs by combining the course with the PADI Peak Performance Buoyancy specialty. If you have just acquired a new underwater camera, this course will help you get the most out of it. We also have cameras available for rent; see our Rental Gear page for more information on camera rental.

Have you ever peered over a wall and wondered what's hiding just a bit deeper? The PADI Deep Diver speciality trains you to handle the increased risks of deep diving while exploring the hidden world that lies down to 40m/130ft. You can also extend your dives by combining it with the PADI Enriched Air Nitrox Specialty.

If you've ever wanted to stay at depth longer than allowed by the no-decompression limits of air, then the PADI Enriched Air Diver specialty course is for you. Nitrogen is a big limiting factor on bottom time, but with Enriched Air Nitrox, we reduce the amount of nitrogen in the breathing mixture by enriching the air with extra oxygen, which results in extended no-decompression limits. Enriched Air Nitrox gives you more time to explore the diversity of Roatan's reef, on the sheer walls and wrecks.

While uncommon, emergencies in scuba diving do occasionally occur. The PADI Rescue Diver course trains you to anticipate and respond to a variety of diving-related emergency scenarios. By shifting the focus from your own personal safety to the general well-being of other people in the water, you will gain greater confidence in your own diving abilities whilst developing the mindset necessary to take your first steps towards becoming a PADI Divemaster.

Emergencies can strike at any time; the Emergency First Response course prepares you to respond appropriately when they do. The skills learned in EFR allow you to extend the critical time window for a victim's survival. Since nearly 70% of life-threatening emergencies occur with family members or friends, the life you save may very well be someone close to you.

The PADI Advanced Open Water Diver course will give you the tools to become a well-rounded diver and to vastly extend your range of dive sites. You will extend your depth limits, get an introduction to the basics of underwater navigation and generally improve your dive skills under the supervision of an experienced PADI instructor. It is also a great opportunity for you to try something new underwater, such as Digital Underwater Photography, Night Diving or any other activity that might interest you.

As a certified PADI Open Water Diver, you have the freedom to dive with a certified buddy independent of a dive professional. If you already tried a PADI Discover Scuba Diving experience or are PADI Scuba Diver certified, check with your instructor to see how credit from these courses may apply to the PADI Open Water program.

Experience the fun of scuba diving without taking the full certification course! The PADI Discover Scuba Diving program gives you a safe and exciting introduction to the underwater world of scuba diving.
