Description
What will you learn?
You’ll learn the tools of the trade, including navigation using natural clues and by following compass headings. During three scuba dives, you’ll practice:
- Methods to estimate distance underwater.
- Compass navigation while making at least five turns.
- Marking or relocating a submerged object or position from the surface.
- Underwater map making.
- Also, the first dive of this PADI Specialty Diver course may credit as an Adventure Dive toward your Advanced Open Water Diver certification – ask Scuba Evolution about earning credit.
What scuba gear will you use?
Besides your basic scuba equipment, you’ll need a compass and underwater slate. Scuba Evolution may suggest other gear to help you stay oriented, such as marker buoys or lines and reels.
How can you start learning now?
Contact Scuba Evolution to enroll in the course and get your materials. Start to study using the PADI Underwater Navigator manual. Your PADI Instructor will then meet with you to schedule knowledge review sessions along with your Navigation Dives.
