PADI® Dry Suit Diver (dry suit diving)
About 6 months a year the water temperature in Switzerland is below 15 degrees (from this temperature I no longer dive wet/semi-dry).
If you like diving as much as I do, not diving during this time would not be an option.
The best alternative to not traveling and still being able to dive is to do the Dry Suit course with me. What are the advantages?
- Warm for diving all year round
- Better visibility under water than in summer
- Fewer people at the dive sites because there is less diving
- New possibilities for diving (location, equipment, etc.)
- New destinations (e.g. the north)
- Prerequisites
- Materials required
- Price
- Services
- Course schedule

Regular course:
In the regular course you take part in the PADI® course together with a group. We will look for dates when we can meet together.
Private course:
There are two or more of you and you want to be on your own. Then our private course is just right for you. You are together as a group and indicate when the dates suit you and when we meet.
VIP course:
Are you alone and want to be able to schedule your appointments flexibly? Then the VIP course is just right for you.
Do you want to stay warm and dry during your dives? Want to extend your diving season? Then dive in a drysuit. A dry suit will keep the water away from your body and keep you nice and warm, even in fairly cold water. There are excellent diving opportunities in the cooler regions of the world and in some areas the conditions are even better for diving in the colder months. As a "dry suit diver" you are well equipped to push your limits and visit more dive sites at different times of the year.
PADI (Junior) Open Water Divers who are at least 10 years old can participate in a PADI Specialty Dry Suit Diver course.
