PADI Tec 45 Course

Koh Tao Thailand

Duration: 4 Days   Cost: 20,000 THB

PADI Tec 45 course follows on smoothly after the PADI Tec 40 course taking your tec training deeper and further into the world of tec diving. Tec 45 builds familiarity tec equipment and configuration. You will now be able to accelerate decompression making gas switches to Nitrox blends up to 100 percent.  The PADI Tec 45 course here on Koh Tao continues to develop your core skills by maintaining accuracy whilst task loading increases. Tec 45 is the second sub-course in the full PADI/ DSAT Tec Deep Diver course. PADI Tec 45 covers the skills and equipment and planning need to dive to a maximum of 45 metres/145 feet.

You will gain knowledge in how to plan and execute  repetitive decompression dives using a stage cylinder of Nitrox or pure oxygen to accelerate deco, meaning you can get out of the water faster. There is no time limit to the amount of decompression, making your dive planning a vital skill. You will prepare for and respond to foreseeable technical diving emergencies and master the basic skills and procedures you’ll need as you move into deeper technical diving. We complete the final Tec 45 dives on some of the shipwrecks we have around Koh Tao such as the Unicorn wreck, with schooling Jack and barracuda, or in Khao Sok National park diving in the underwater village.
