Training - Multi Level Diver
Multi level diving is a technique for safely extending your bottom time beyond the no-decompression limit of the deepest depth you reach. This is accomplished by ascending to two or three shallower levels during the dive where your body absorbs nitrogen more slowly than if you remain at the deepest depth for the entire dive. Because you absorb nitrogen more slowly, you have more time available within the no-decompression limits to enjoy your dive.
Whether you favour
coral reefs or inland lakes, most dive sites have opportunities to multi level
dive. Any place you find a sloping reef, wall or other topography that allows
you to start deep and move to shallower depths, you can plan a multi level dive.
Even many wrecked dives will allow multi level dives in which you start on the
deeper parts of the wreck and gradually ascent to the wreck’s upper structure.
Multi level diving offers you the benefit of extending your bottom time without
entering into more hazardous decompression diving. Multi level diving is your
ticket to more of what you got into diving for - time exploring the aquatic
realm.
Course Prerequisite: Open Water Diver or equivalent.
On completion of the course you will be awarded the PADI Multilevel Diver Speciality diver award.
