EXPLORATION REBREATHER DIVER LEVEL 5
ANDI Exploration Rebreather Diver is the most advanced and demanding training program which prepares the diver to grow into CCR diving without limitations in configuration, gases, depth and deco runtime. The training offers much knowledge of many important topics necessary for this type of diving. There is no space for trial and error.. Exploration without limitations requires much practice and patience even after the course. A very rewarding course with a high fun factor as well.

Our cave experience encompasses Irish and UK caves, France, Italy, Mexico, Florida, Philippines, Spain and more. We are experienced in open circuit from Mexico style sidemount to full CCR. We can train you to expedition level including mixed gas.
The pathway will not be fast, there will be no shortcuts, but we will be delighted to dive any cave with you when done!
