This is a skill-packed course open to all levels of open water divers as young as 12 (with parent/guardian permission). A minimum of two open-water dives and at least 90 minutes of in water instruction, it’s designed for certified divers who want to dive with purpose. This course includes modules on dive planning and following a set route using natural navigation, a compass, and techniques to gauge speed and distance travelled. You'll practise these skills in the water until they become second nature, so you can enjoy the dive instead of wondering where the boat or safe exit is
This course is a fantastic way to move beyond simply following a dive guide and heading towards building the confidence to lead dives, navigate safely, and understand the underwater environment.
