This one day course will introduce you to the techniques of finding your way around underwater. Using your manual and video and on the surface before the dives, you will learn about and practise the art of natural and compass navigation. Then you will be given the opportunity to develop these skills on two open water dives.

  • Understand your compass
  • Develop skills of natural navigation
  • Discover & use the Nav-Finder
  • Find out how to take bearings
  • Practise how to return to your last point underwater
