IANTD Technical and Cave Courses


The basic price for all IANTD Technical and Cave courses is 245$US per person per day. This price includes training and gas only. The Package Price which includes equipment rental, cenote and certification fees is 295$US per person per day. You can calculate the price of the whole course based on the information given below, but please have in mind that everyone learns at a different pace and more days may sometimes be needed for certification. The course durations listed below are the minimum for divers with excellent buoyancy, trim and coordination. They are often achievable, but sometimes we need more time. We will never try to prolong a course for financial gain and will inform our students the moment the need for additional training becomes apparent.

If the back kick (this is often the hardest part) is not perfected during the course duration additional day/days will have to be booked in order for certification to be earned.
