Technical Diving Training in Playa del Carmen
Technical diving goes beyond the usual limits of recreational diving through more advanced planning, redundant equipment configurations, multiple breathing gases and, depending on the course, mandatory decompression or the use of Trimix.
Becoming a technical diver is not simply about going deeper. Training focuses primarily on buoyancy, trim, propulsion, gas management, decompression, gas switches, teamwork and emergency procedures.
Exercises are introduced progressively and repeated until they can be performed with precision, stability and control.
Why Train in Technical Diving in Mexico?

Playa del Carmen and the Riviera Maya provide different environments for developing technical diving skills, including areas suitable for exercises, deeper dive sites, cenotes and locations where ascent and decompression procedures can be practiced.
Dive sites are selected according to the course, required depth, your experience, configuration, conditions and the objectives of each training session.

Frequently Asked Questions
What Level Do I Need to Start Technical Diving?
It depends on the course. Sidemount Diver allows you to develop a sidemount configuration from the earlier levels, while decompression, Technical Diver and Trimix courses require additional certifications and experience.
We review your level before defining the most appropriate training program.
Are Advanced Nitrox and Advanced EANx the Same Course?
Advanced Nitrox is a term commonly used by divers. The IANTD course name is Advanced EANx Diver.
How Deep Can I Go?
The depth limit depends on the certification. Advanced EANx Diver has a maximum training depth of 45 meters, Technical Diver 55 meters, and Normoxic Trimix Plus Diver a maximum certification depth of 75 meters.
These depths are maximum program limits, not targets that must necessarily be reached.
Can I Take a Technical Diving Course in Sidemount?
Yes. Sidemount can be used in several technical diving courses. The Technical Sidemount Diver course specifically focuses on using this configuration for technical and decompression diving.
Do I Need to Own My Equipment?
It depends on the course and your configuration. For advanced training, it is preferable to work with equipment you already know and can continue using after the course.
We review the required equipment with you before confirming the program.
