Burma Scuba Diving Courses
PADI CAVERN DIVER SPECIALTY
Looking to explore hidden secrets in caverns around
the world? If you like searching for adventure in the wildest
of Burma diving places then you'll need your PADI Cavern Diver certification!
 Cavern diving is defined as any dive conducted within
the light zone of a cave. The light zone is the area near the
entrance of the cave where you can see natural light at all
times. You'll go on four dives during the PADI Cavern Diving
programme. During your first dive (which is conducted in
open water), you'll practice the use of lines and reels and
emergency procedures.
The final three dives are conducted in the cavern
environment. Your actual penetration-training dives are limited
to within the light zone and within 40 metres from the surface
(vertical and horizontal distance included). Burma liveaboards are ideal for this course as there are many caverns such as at Western Rocky and Shark Cave.
The programme covers the knowledge and techniques
of cavern diving and describes the dangers involved with cave
diving (this is not a cave diving course). Topics covered
include:
- The planning, organisation, procedures and problems of
cavern diving
- Special equipment considerations including: lighting,
guidelines, and redundant breathing systems
- Proper body position and buoyancy control, and air-consumption
management
- Information that describes the specific hazards of cavern
diving including: silting, line entanglement and breakage,
disorientation from permanent lines and emergency situations
unique to cavern diving.
