PADI Technical Diver Training

Get Technical & Go Beyond With PADI's Range of TecRec Dive Courses


Why Become A Tec Rec Diver?

Many spectacular, untouched wrecks lie at depths well below 40 metres/130 feet. Deep reefs have organisms you don’t find in the shallows. Some people enjoy the challenge and focus tec diving requires. Still others love being involved with cutting edge technologies. These reasons make tec diving rewarding.

Techical Wreck Diving

Together with our premium liveaboard partner Global Diving Initiative, Aqua Vision arrange Liveaboard diving to some of the worlds most spectacular locations including Truk Lagoon and Scapa Flow, both of which require Tec Rec certification level, so if you want to dive at some of the worlds best sites, TecRec is the way to go!

The TecRec Range

PADI TecRec Courses (Open Circuit)
Tec 40 Diver

An introduction to technical diving that provides a transition from rec to tec and bridges the gap to full technical deep decompression diving.

During the course you will gain in experience and begin building tec diving knowledge and skills to qualify you to make limited decompression dives to 40m


Tec 45 Diver

Wearing full tec kit of doubles (either sidemount or backmount) plus a decompression cylinder you’ll extend your depth limit to 45m and learn to plan and execute repetitive accelerated decompression dives using up to 100% O2.

This is a course where you’ll learn to rise to a new set of challenges and make the commitment to becoming a true technical diver.


Tec 50 Diver

As a Tec 50 diver, you will show that you’ve developed competency as a tec diver and have the skills to dive to a maximum of 50m, and you will make extended range dives using two decompression gases.

Reaching this level is a challenge, and is not always easy, but earning your Tec 50 certification opens the door to some amazing deeper diving expeditions
