If you have just finished your OWD and your AOWD you should have at least nine logged dives, four from the open water dives in your first course and five from your advanced lessons. is a bit demanding, because you will learn how to assist a fellow diver in case of an emergancy, so we take it serious. The course still offers a lot of fun for everybody though.
