Advanced Cave Sidemount & No-Mount Course – Master Confined Cave Diving

Explore Beyond Limits with Pluto Dive

The Advanced Cave Sidemount Course in Playa del Carmen is designed for experienced cave divers who want to refine their skills in confined and complex cave environments. This program focuses on advanced sidemount and no-mount techniques, essential for safely navigating passages too tight for standard configurations.


Why Train in Sidemount and No-Mount?

Cave systems in Mexico often include narrow restrictions and low ceilings that demand flexibility, precision, and exceptional control. Learning to manage sidemount and no-mount setups gives divers the ability to explore deeper, longer, and more safely — while minimizing environmental impact.


What You’ll Learn

During this advanced-level training, you’ll develop the skills and confidence to handle technical overhead environments, including:

  • Equipment configuration for sidemount and no-mount cave diving

  • Tank removal and replacement techniques in tight spaces

  • Propulsion and trim control in confined passages

  • Buoyancy management and low-silt movement

  • Gas management and problem-solving under pressure

  • Safety drills and emergency response in overhead conditions

All training takes place in Mexico’s world-renowned cave systems, with professional guidance from Pluto Dive’s experienced instructors. With personalized instruction and small groups, you’ll gain real confidence handling advanced cave scenarios.
