Navigate

NAVIGATE YOURSELF AROUND UNA UNA ISLAND

Have you ever wondered how the dive guides always find the dive sites and know their way underwater? In the Navigation Specialty Course you will learn the skills to successfully dive and navigate. Underwater navigation is very different from navigating on land. Firstly, we don’t have the same visibility as on land. Furthermore, on land we don’t have to deal with currents or waves.

Good navigation skills are especially helpful on dives with poor visibility when you aren’t able to see the reference points you are used to. Strong skills in navigation will reduce your surface swims and boost your confidence by having more knowledge about where you are.
