These specialty courses are perfect for certified divers looking to expand their skills and explore more complex dive environments. Technical courses take things even further, teaching you how to plan and execute deeper dives using advanced gas mixes and gear—ideal for those who want to push their limits safely.
For divers with professional goals, Auckland is also the place to earn your divemaster or instructor certification. With structured internships and hands-on instructor development programmes, you'll gain real-world experience in teaching, leading dives, and managing students. It's a brilliant opportunity to turn a passion for diving into a rewarding, internationally recognised career.
