What is Tec Diving?

Technical Diving allows you to extend your diving beyond recreational “no stop” limits. This allows you to plan longer dives at shallower depths, or to plan dives to more advanced depths and locations. Technical (tec) diving allows you to greatly expand your diving skills and knowledge and can provide you with experiences and exploration opportunities in places very few people will ever see:

Increased Range - Exploring deeper than 40 metres/130 feet
Increased Diving Environments - Diving in  caves, shipwrecks or other special environments 
Increased Skills - Using specialized gas mixtures  and decompression procedures
Specialized Equipment - Using highly specialized equipment,

PADI Tec Courses

Tec diving attracts experienced divers who want to go places other divers cannot. These types of divers usually enjoy a challenge and are willing to focus on technical diving demands. Tec divers are able to visit reefs and wrecks at depths well below the 40 metre/130 foot recreational limit. With specialized training, they can explore underwater places well beyond the reach of mainstream sport diving.
