PADI Drysuit Diver Specialty 26th May and 9th June 2019

Posted on

PADI Drysuit Diver Specialty June 2019

As part of our standard PADI Specialty Courses running throughout 2019, we will be running the PADI Drysuit Diver Specialty course on Sunday 26th May for the Pool orientation and Sunday 9th June for the Open Water dives.

Extend your diving season! If you want to stay warm and toasty, feeling comfortable in cooler water, you will want to dive in a dry suit, take the PADI Drysuit Diver Specialty.

Unlike a wetsuit, a dry suit seals you off from the outside water and that keeps you warm! Even in surprisingly cold water.

You will need to do a small amount of home study before the course, then come to us for half a day at the centre to learn how to use the Drysuit in the pool, shortly before we go to the open water qualifying dives.

PADI D.S.M.B Diver Specialty June 2019

Posted on

DSMB June 2019

As part of our PADI Specialty of the Month programme in 2019, we will be running the PADI Delayed Surface Marker Buoy Diver course on Sunday 26th May and Sunday 9th June.

The classroom and pool orientation will take place on Sunday 26th May, the Open Water qualifying dives will be held on Sunday 9th June.

Surface Marker Buoys should be an integral part of your scuba dive gear. They are an important piece of safety equipment, every diver should really own one.

The purpose of the DSMB Diver specialty course is to give you the knowledge and skills to safely deploy your DSMB/SMB, to know when and where to use it, and to give you a chance to practice these skills in a safe environment rather than on your first boat dive, which could cause problems.

Surface Marker Buoys serve a range of purposes. They are used to:​

  • Allow shore cover / boat support an ascending diver​
  • Allow boat crew to keep track of buddy teams on a drift dive
  • Alert boat traffic to the presence of a diver​
  • Provide a visual reference and line for ascending divers
