  One great way to do the Advanced Open Water course is while on a liveaboard trip. But if you prefer a land-based option, it’s just as much fun. In this case, some dives may be offered from shore and some from boats, depending on the circumstances. For example, Night Dive is easiest done from the beach, while Deep Dive is easier from a boat.
