reason to why you should not be able to advance from Open Water to Rescue

If you are very happy doing snorkeling on your vacation and you sometimes have been wondering what it would be like scuba diving, we have a PADI program that would fit you perfectly - Discover Scuba Diving or DSD!
Dive course overview
The training dives in all dive courses from Khao Lak are performed at Similan Islands.
You might notice that the courses done in Khao Lak are a little bit more pricey compared with the courses done from Phuket.
The reason is that it is more expensive to do the dives at Similan Islands. There is a longer distance to the dive sites and we also must pay Park Fee for every single person.
For the Dive master course, it
is perfect to be aboard one of our day trip boats and see the way it’s being done practically.
Naturally, we’re using the latest of PADI’s teaching methods, the teaching is supported by excellent video-tapes or DVD in your language and the dive equipment is free of charge during the course!
Furthermore on the boat trips the food, water and coffee is free of charge.
PADI is an abbreviation of Professional Association
of Diving Instructors. PADI has been leading the way in development and quality
of recreational diving and is today the worlds largest organization in dive training.
It might be assuring to know that around one million divers are trained through
PADI schools world-wide each year.
