The answer depends on your age, local regulations and dive site depths.<\/p><ul><li>The maximum depth for divers 15 or older is 30 metres\/100 feet<\/li><li>For divers 12-15 years old, the maximum depth is 21 metres\/70 feet<\/li><\/ul><p>The depths listed above are the maximum depth, your dive may be shallower. A deep dive is considered anything below 18 metres\/60 feet. Put another way, a dive to just 19 metres\/62 feet qualifies as a deep dive.<\/p><p>The PADI Advanced Open Water course is like a specialty sampler platter.
