The Duchess earns her Advanced Scuba Diving certificate!

Kensington Palace has confirmed that the Duchess has completed her advanced scuba diving course! Kate has always been very athletic even back in her school days. She is known to frequently sail, ski, play tennis, hockey, etc. 



She has completed the Professional Association of Diving Instructors, aka the PADI, Advanced Open Water Diver qualification, and is able to dive up to a depth of 98 feet. 
Pretty impressive!

This also means she is able to join Prince William (who is also a diver) on underwater trips. 
One of their favorite known vacation spots is the island of Mustique, where it is rumored Kate completed her course, and is also where William has gone on deep dives in.
William is also the president of the British Sub-Aqua club. 
So no doubt this certificate will go into good use!

 In order to pass the course, Catherine would of most likely had to pass a deep dive and underwater navigation, including how to handle equipment and emergencies.
