In addition to certifying Open Water Divers Hudson’s Dive Center also offer a wide range of Specialty Courses for Divers to chose from:
Digital Underwater Photography - Many of you may already have a digital camera system and a proper underwater housing. As such, it's likely you are asking yourself how to take better pictures. Now a structured program is available to answer your digital underwater photography questions which means more fun and satisfaction in diving.
Night and Limited Visibility - While diving at night you can discover a different side of this world and you can experience it from a completely different view.
Dry Suit - If you want to dive during the fall and winter in the colder climates, DRY SUIT DIVING is the course you should take. Visibility at these times of the year is usually excellent so it's a great time to get out there.
Science of Diving - This program treats all areas of dive theory to a detailed and comprehensive manner: physics, physiology, decompression theory, marine life and diving equipment.
Underwater Navigation - The program will teach you to navigate with a compass and how to apply natural navigation skills.
Perfect Buoyancy - Improving your buoyancy control skills is highly recommended. Every diver who wants to improve diving skills and at the same time wants to perform active environmental protection should take a PERFECT BUOYANCY course.
Wreck Diving - Diving on wrecks is exciting and there are some potential risks too, but with the right training WRECK DIVING will become a great adventure.
Deep Diving - Without proper training this kind of diving is an uncontrollable safety risk. To plan your dives properly you must first know about all of the potential risks involved in DEEP DIVING.
Diver Stress and Rescue - Stress is a major contributor to rescue situations and diving accidents. Through this course you will learn accident prevention, as well as how to handle problem situations if they occur.
Enriched Air Nitrox to 40% - In this program you will learn all the necessary rules for planning dives with Nitrox and using Nitrox in a safe way. An important key point in the entire program is analyzing your own tank prior to any Nitrox dive.
Computer Diving - It is your chance to learn and understand diving computers.
Equipment Techniques - The program teaches you how to choose the right equipment for your needs.
Boat Diving - You will learn the right boat diving techniques, how to choose the right travel agency and diving operator when planning your vacation, what to consider when traveling with your Total Diving System.
Search and Recovery - Whether it's the gold of a sunken ship, a lost ring or simply the your buddy's dive light accidentally lost, there are times in which the appropriate training to search for lost objects underwater would be beneficial.
