Experience a New Way to Dive

Take your diving to the next level with the PADI Full Face Mask Diver Specialty. Popular among public safety, scientific, and cold-water divers, full face masks offer increased comfort, warmth, and protection while allowing you to breathe naturally through your nose. Whether you’re looking to expand your diving skills, prepare for specialised diving, or simply experience a different way of exploring underwater, this specialty opens the door to exciting new possibilities.

At Zero Limits Diving, we’ll teach you how to confidently use a full face mask, giving you the skills to dive comfortably in a variety of environments and conditions.

Prerequisites

To enrol in the PADI Full Face Mask Diver Specialty course, you must:

  • Be a PADI Open Water Diver (or hold an equivalent certification from another recognised training agency).
  • Be at least 12 years old.

Course Outline

During one confined water session and two open water dives, you’ll learn how to:

  • Understand the different types and features of full face masks.
  • Correctly assemble, prepare, and inspect your equipment.
  • Dive comfortably while breathing through your nose.
  • Clear water from your mask and make adjustments underwater.
  • Respond safely to simulated out-of-gas situations.
  • Care for and maintain your full face mask equipment.

The first dive of this specialty may also count as an Adventure Dive towards your PADI Advanced Open Water Diver certification. Completing this course also brings you one step closer to achieving the prestigious PADI Master Scuba Diver rating.

Equipment

You’ll use your standard scuba equipment together with:

  • Full face mask
  • Compatible regulator system
