COURSE DESCRIPTION
Wrecks can be either sunk on purpose to make an artificial reef for divers or lost as the result of an accident, but in either case they are like a jump into the past. Ships, boats, cars and even airplanes can make a charming wreck to explore while scuba diving, and usually attract a huge amount of marine life. At the same time, diving on a wreck involves some potential hazard that a diver must be aware of. The PADI Wreck Diver Specialty course will teach you how to dive on a wreck in safety and have the most amazing experience out of your wreck dive.
WHAT WILL YOU LEARN WITH THE WRECK DIVER COURSE?
Your training will include understanding the guidelines for researching and respecting wrecks, and all the safety procedures to follow for a safe wreck dive. During four Open Water dives you will learn:
- Safety procedures to navigate and explore wrecks.
- Surveying and mapping a wreck.
- Use of penetration lines and reels to guide an exploration.
- Kicking techniques to avoid lifting up silt
