Where can I go from here?

PADI Adventure Dives can also count towards PADI Specialty Diver certifications.  If you liked your Night Adventure Dive so much that you wanted to take a complete PADI Night Diver Specialty course, your Night Adventure Dive can count as the first dive of that specialty.  PADI Advanced Open Water Divers at least 15 years of age can enroll in PADI Wreck or Deep Diver Specialty courses.

Advanced Open Water Divers can also move on to the PADI Rescue Diver or Junior Rescue Diver course.
