Anyone who has their Advanced Open Water Certification can train for cave diving. However, not everyone is suited for cave diving and there are a number of other forms of training and experience that will help when it comes to getting your cave diving certification. If you have been certified as a rescue diver and if you have your Nitrox Diver Certification, then these will enable you to be more prepared for cave diving. It also helps if you have had a lot of diving experience, logging 100 dives or more in the previous two years and at least 10-12 dives in the previous 6 months. Those who want to learn to cave dive must also be able to weight themselves appropriately and should be able to hover horizontally and achieve a helicopter turn.
