Wreck Diver - 3 days / 6 dives
Whether it was sunk on purpose as an artificial reef or as the result of mishap, wrecks are fascinating dive sites.
Most divers find wrecked ships, planes and even automobiles nearly irresistible because they’re enticing to explore, exciting avenues of discovery, and usually teaming with aquatic life.
The Wreck Diver course teaches you the ins and outs of rewarding, responsible wreck diving.

Pre-requisites
- Be 15 years or older
- An Advanced Diver certification (min 30m) or Deep Diver Certification (or have an equivalent qualifying certification from another organisation) due to the depths of the wrecks we are potentially diving
- Must have dived within the last 12months or attended an in-water refresher
Due to the depths of the wrecks we are potentially diving it would be useful for you to have the Enriched Air Nitrox certification to extend your allowable bottom time on the wrecks.
The Fun Part
The fun part of the Wreck Diver course is visiting wrecks, unlocking mysteries and starting to gain the knowledge and experience that allows you to see things that others overlook. Sometimes, only the trained, experienced eye recognizes that a small hole or open door likely caused the vessel’s demise.

The weekend has been awesome! Enjoyed every moment even if really challenging and difficult at moments.
Dave has been an awesome and patient instructor as usual and the vibes and Northland Dive were amazing.

I must say I have been very impressed by the level of service and training by the team at Global Dive. I think I got more out of the two days diving over the weekend than I ever have for any training. Dave and Pete’s work is top notch.
I’ll definitely be back to see you guys soon.
Cheers and best regards
