Travel to Mexico. I believe that it is a law that a DM must lead divers. I've never been on a dive in Mexico that was not lead by a DM.
Why would you say that? Thoughts please. I just did the deep to 39m theory (dives in about a week) and I learned a lot about gas management, how to calculate MODs for different mixes, a bit about about decompression theory, etc. Found it really useful.
After giving it consideration, I withdraw my comment.
I received my open water cert (NAUI) when the course was a lot more intense and inclusive. Virtually all of my diving has been done "deep" (beyond 60 ft) with the majority of the dives in the 80 to 100 ft range. Almost half without benefit of a computer and about a quarter without BC. Planning and gas management was SOP.
But now thinking about it.. My daughter is recently open water certified. If I were not here to mentor her, would she benefit from the deep diving specialty? Answer.. yes.
