This dive gives you the skills to make a real impact while diving responsibly and sustainably.

More Info
Scuba diving requires a minimum level of health and fitness. Chronic health conditions, certain medications and/or recent surgery may require you to get written approval from a physician before diving. Avoid disappointment, download and review the Diver Medical form to ensure you won’t need a physician’s approval to dive before enrolling in a scuba course. Instructors and dive center staff are not physicians and should not be asked for medical advice; only medical professionals can give medical clearance to dive. If you (or your physician) have questions about medical fitness to dive, contact the experts at Divers Alert Network (DAN).

After completing the PADI Dive Against Debris® course, you’ll have the tools to continue making a positive impact on the environment. If you’re eager to learn more about marine ecosystems and the creatures you’re helping to protect, consider the PADI Fish Identification or PADI Naturalist courses. These specialties will deepen your understanding of underwater life, helping you recognize and appreciate the diversity of species while diving. By combining these courses with your eco-conscious diving skills, you’ll become an even more knowledgeable and responsible steward of the ocean.
