Your Adventures In Diving Wreck Adventure Dive may count towards this Specialty certification at instructor discretion. This Specialty certification also counts as one of five Specialty certifications required for your Master Scuba Diver certification.
To explore some of our wrecks such as HMS Scylla ,where we normally do our penetration dive*, contact Aquanauts to sign up for your Wreck Diver Specialty course.
* Wreck penetration-training dives are limited to within the light zone and within 40 metres/130 feet from the surface, vertical and horizontal distance included. If the wreck used for training is located in deep water (over 18 metres/60 feet), the Deep Diver rating is recommended as a prerequisite for the Wreck Diver program. Scylla penetrations can be deeper than 18m.
